Use the procedure described below to print onto paper that is fed (one
sheet at a time) from the bypass tray.

1 On your computer, display the “Setup” tab of the printer driver, and

then specify “Bypass” for the Paper Source setting (page 5-13).

2 Execute the print operation from your computer.

3 When the message “LOAD PAPER”

appears on the machine’s display,
load paper onto the bypass tray.

Note

Be sure to execute the print operation from the computer first, and then
place the paper onto the bypass tray. If there is already paper on the
bypass tray when you execute the print operation, remove it, and then
place it again onto the bypass tray.

Load the paper into the manual bypass tray one sheet at a time.

If the multiple bypass tray (optional) is installed, it can used in the
same way as any other paper tray since the multiple bypass tray can
hold 100 sheets of paper.

The multiple bypass tray can be loaded with a maximum of 10
