LOADING PAPER
Follow the steps below to load paper into the paper tray or bypass tray.
You can load plai n paper and other sp ecial paper. For detailed informat ion of paper type,
see page 41.
LOADING PAPER INTO THE PAPER TRAY
Remove the output tray , and open the front lid of paper tray .
1
Adjust the guides and shown in the illustration to the width
2
of the paper.
Load the paper.
3
Load the paper print side down into the paper tray. Make sure to push the paper to
the right side and the rear side of the tray.
16
LOADING PAPER INTO THE PAPER TRAY
Move the guides ( , ) to touch the edges of the paper.
4
When loading envelopes
Set the paper knob to the "Thick Paper ( )" setting.
Load the envelope f ace down with the flap to the ri ght, and then a djust the pap er
guides to the width of the envelope.
LOADING PAPER
Notes for loading envelopes
z Load envelopes in portrait direction into the paper tray.
z
Do not use non-standard envelopes, envelops with clasps, or window envelopes.
z Be sure to select each of Com10, DL, C 6, and Invita tion A2 on th e paper size
setting of the printer d river. (For detailed inform ation on printer driver, re fer to
the online manual.)
When loading index cards, postcards or birthday cards
Set the paper knob to the "Thick Paper ( )" setting.
Set guide up, and then fit guide and against the loaded cards.
Be sure to load in
portrait direction.
Most paper and enve lopes will be fed correctly from the paper tray. Howev er, if
paper or envelopes a re par ti cu la rly s ti ff or h eav y, they shou ld be fed one at a time
through the bypass tray. This will avoid wrinkling or misfeeding.
Close the front lid of paper tray by firmly pushing on its right
5
edge.
With some sizes of paper, gu ide ma y stick out of the paper tray . In this case,
print with the front lid of the paper tray open.
17
LOADING PAPER INTO THE PAPER TRAY
Attach the output tray.
6
Pull out the output tray extension to the proper position, and
7
then raise the paper stop guide.
Place this projection
toward the printer.
z Be sure that paper is free of rips, dust, wrinkles, and curled or bent edges.
z Make sure all the paper in the stack is the same size and type.
z Fan the paper and tap it against a flat surface to ensure it is even before loading
into the printer.
2
z The paper tray can hold up to 150 sheets of 75g/m
to keep the total thickness of the loaded paper stack below 15mm.
z When loading postcard size paper into the paper tray, load it in portrait direction.
z When loading paper, ensure there is no space between the paper and the guide,
and check if the guide is no t set too narrow c ausing the pap er to bend. Loa ding
paper in these ways will result in document skew or a paper jam.
z The paper knob s hould a lways be set to t he "Normal Paper ( )" setting except
while printing on thick paper or envelopes.
z When not usin g the printer for an extended period, remove all paper from the
paper tray and store it in a dry place. If paper is left in the printer for an extended
period, the paper will absorb moisture from the air, resulting in paper jams.
z When adding new paper to the paper tray, remove the old paper already
contained in the tray, place i t on top of the new paper. Then load it all into the
paper tray. Placing n ew paper on top of the paper alrea dy contained in the tray
may result in feeding two sheets at one time.

and workmanship under normal use for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of purchase as
evidenced by a copy of the receipt. The entire liability of SHARP and/or its Licensors and your
exclusive remedy will be replacement of the disk which fails to meet the limited warranty
provided by this Clause 6. A disk will be replaced when it is returned to SHARP or a SHARP
authorized representative with a copy of the receipt. SHARP will have no responsibility to
replace a disk damaged by accident, abuse or misapplication.
ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ON THE DISKS, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
