paper or envelopes are particularly stiff or heavy they should be fed one at a time through the bypass tray. This will avoid wrinkling or misfeeding.
z It is recommended that you perform test printing on normal paper before printing
on the card.
Be sure to load in portrait direction.
Close the front lid of the paper tray by firmly pushing its right

while printing on thick paper.
z When not using the unit for an extended period, remove all paper from the paper
tray and store it in a dry place. If paper is left in the unit 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 it on top of the new paper. Then load it all into the paper tray. Placing new paper on top of the paper already contained in the tray may result in feeding two sheets at one time.

"CLEAR/STOP" button ( ) or the "START" ( ) button.
IDENTIFYING UNIT PROBLEMS
When an error message appears, or you believe the unit is not operating normally (e.g. copy quality is poor, etc.), refer to the guide below before contacting your nearest service centre. Refer to "Troubleshooting" on the online manual for problems about printing and scanning.
Problems Check Point Remedy
The Unit does not operate
Paper feeding or jamming problems occur.
Is the power cord firmly plugged into an electrical socket? Is the front cover or the maintenance cover open? Has a paper jam occurred in the paper tray? Is there too much paper in the paper tray?
Have two or more sheets been fed into the machine?
Are the paper guides aligned correctly against the loaded paper?
Is the bypass tray set to the appropriate position for thick paper?
Ensure that the power plug is plugged in correctly. Ensure that the covers are properly closed. (See page 18) Remove the jammed paper. (See page 73) The paper tray can hold up to 150 sheets of 80g/m paper. Be sure to keep total thickness of the loaded paper stack below 15mm. The bypass tray can hold 1 sheet of paper only. If too much paper is loaded into the tray, paper supply problems will occur. Remove some of the paper from the paper tray. If more than one sheet of paper is loaded into the body from the tray concurrently, paper supply trouble will occur. Always fan the paper and tap the stack against a flat surface before loading into the tray. If the paper guides are set too narrow for the loaded paper, the paper may not be supplied smoothly. On the other hand, if the paper guides are set too wide, the paper may be supplied crookedly. Be sure to align the guides correctly to the loaded paper. When loading thick paper via the bypass tray, open the tray until it reaches position 2 (the tray has two stop positions) , and set the paper knob to ( ). (See page 8, 9 and
25)
