Loading paper and specialty media

Loading the standard or optional 250-sheet or 550-sheet tray

Although the 250-sheet tray and the 550-sheet tray are different
in appearance, they require the same process for loading paper.
Use these instructions to load paper in either tray:

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 width guide tab inward as shown, and move the

width guide to the correct position for the paper size being
loaded.

3 Unlock the length guide, squeeze the length guide tab inward

as shown, and slide the guide to the correct position for the
paper size being loaded.

Notes:

• Use the size indicators on the bottom of the tray to help

position the guides.

• For standard paper sizes, lock the length guide.

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.

5 Load the paper stack:

• Print side facedown for single-sided printing

• Print side faceup for duplex printing

Note: Paper must be loaded differently in the trays if an
optional StapleSmartTM II Finisher is installed. For more
information, see the User's Guide.

Note: Notice the maximum fill line on the side of the tray
which indicates the maximum height for loading paper. Do
not overload the tray.

6 If necessary, adjust the paper guides to lightly touch the sides

of the stack, and lock the length guide for the paper sizes
indicated on the tray.

7 Insert the tray.

loaded in the tray, then change the Paper Type setting for the
tray from the printer control panel.
