Quick Reference
Loading paper and specialty media
Loading the standard 250‑sheet tray
The printer has one standard 250‑sheet tray (Tray 1) with an attached
manual feeder. The 250‑sheet tray, the 650‑sheet duo drawer, and the
optional 550‑sheet tray support the same paper sizes and types and
are loaded in the same way.
Note: The optional 550‑sheet tray is not available for all printer
models.
1 Pull the tray out.
Note: Do not remove trays while a job prints or while Busy
appears on the display. Doing so may cause a jam.
2 Squeeze the length guide tab inward as shown, and slide the guide
to the correct position for the paper size being loaded.
Note: Use the size indicators on the bottom of the tray to help
position the guide.
3 If the paper is longer than A4 or letter size, push the green tab at
the back of the tray to extend it.
5 Load the paper stack with the recommended print side faceup.
6 Make sure the paper guides are secure against the edges of the
paper.
Note: Make sure that side guides are placed tightly against the
edges of the paper so that the image is registered properly on
the page.
7 Insert the tray.
4 Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them.
Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level
surface.

8 If a different type or size of paper was loaded than the type or size
previously loaded in the tray, change the Paper Type or Paper Size
setting for the tray from the printer control panel.
Note: Mixing paper sizes or types in a tray may lead to jams.
Loading the 650‑sheet duo drawer
The 650‑sheet duo drawer (Tray 2) consists of a 550‑sheet tray and an
integrated 100‑sheet multipurpose feeder. The drawer is loaded in the
same way as the 250‑sheet tray and the optional 550‑sheet tray, and
supports the same paper types and sizes. The only differences are the
look of the guide tabs and the location of the paper size indicators, as
shown in the following illustration:
Note: The optional 550‑sheet tray is not available for all printer
models.

Warning—Potential Damage: Never use envelopes with
stamps, clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or self‑stick
adhesives. These envelopes may severely damage the
printer.
Notes:
• Do not load or close the multipurpose feeder while a job is
printing.
• Load only one size and type of paper at a time.

multipurpose feeder and is not bent or wrinkled.
