Important
If you use damp or curled paper, a misfeed might occur. In such a case, try turning over the
paper stack in the paper tray. If there is no impro vement, change to copy pa per with less curl.
Note
If you load paper of the same size and in the same orientation in two or more trays, the
machine automatically shifts to another tray when the tray in use runs out of paper. This function is called Auto Tr ay Switch. (If you put recycled paper or special paper in paper trays using the Select Special tray menu, this function is not available to these trays unless their settings are identical.) This saves interrupting a copy run to replenish paper even when you make a large number of copies. You can cancel this setting. See page 98 “Paper Tray Display in APS mode”, page 100 “Auto tray Switching”, and page 99 “Select Special tray”.
Reference
If you want to add paper, see P.75 “IF COPY PAPER RUNS OUT.”If you want to change a paper size, see P.86 “CHANGING A PAPER SIZE.”
