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 39.

LOADING PAPER INTO THE PAPER TRAY

Remove the output tray , and open the front lid of paper tray .

Adjust the guides and shown in the illustration to the width

of the paper.

Load the paper.

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.

LOADING PAPER INTO THE PAPER TRAY

Move the guides ( , ) to touch the edges of the paper.

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.

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

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.

LOADING PAPER INTO THE PAPER TRAY

Attach the output tray.

Place this projection toward the printer.

Pull out the output tray extension to the proper position, and

then raise the paper stop guide.

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.

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 the "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.

(20lbs.) plain paper. Be sure

LOADING THE BYPASS TRAY WITH PAPER

If you wish to print on ba nner paper or anothe r paper type not loaded i nto the main paper tray, use the bypa ss f eed. O nly o ne sh eet of paper (or up to 5 she ets of ban ner p ape r) c an be placed in the bypass tray at a time.

Open the bypass tray located on the rear of the printer.

Load the paper print side up.

Align the paper with the r ight side of the bypass tray and press the paper bu tton. The paper will be fed slightly into the printer.

LOADING PAPER

When loading an envelope

Open the bypass tray until it reaches position 2 (the tr ay has two sto p positions), set the paper knob to the "Thick Paper ( )" setting. Load the envelope face up with the flap to the right, and position against the right edge of the tray as shown bellow. Refer to "Notes for loading envelopes" on page 17.

Position 1

Position 2

When loading banner paper

Open the bypass tr ay until i t reache s position 2, and set the pape r along the righ t side edge of the tray.

z Maximum 5 sheets of banner paper can be used. z When printing onto banner paper, ensure to use an application software

supporting banner paper.

z The paper knob s hould a lways be set to the "Normal Paper ( )" setting except

while printing on thick paper or envelopes.
