Loading Paper

Paper can be loaded into either the cassette or the multi-purpose tray. For details on paper that can be used, refer to Appendix in Advanced Operation Guide, Paper.

Note for Adding Paper

After taking new paper out of its packaging, be sure to fan through the paper a few times to separate the sheets before loading that paper into the cassette or the multi-purpose tray.

Set the paper in the cassette with the side which faced the top of its packaging facing up.

Important! • When using paper that has been run through a machine before, check it to make sure that all

staples and paper clips have been removed. Not doing so may result in poor images or malfunctions.

• Straighten out any creases or curls in the paper before loading it. Failure to straighten out

creases and curls may lead to paper jams.

• Leaving paper out of its package under high

temperature and high humidity conditions may lead to problems caused by ambient moisture. After loading paper into the cassette, store the remaining paper sealed in the paper storage bag. Also if any paper remains in the multi-purpose tray, store the paper sealed in the paper storage bag. Before leaving the machine in disuse for a prolonged period of time, remove the paper from the cassette and seal it in the paper storage bag to protect it from moisture.

2-1

Preparations

Loading Paper into the Cassette

Standard paper, recycled paper, and colored paper can be loaded into the cassette. Up to 300 sheets of standard paper (80 g/m²) or 100 sheets of thick paper (90 to 105 g/m²) can be set.

Paper sizes that can be loaded are: A3, B4, A4, A4R, B5, B5R, A5R, Folio, 11 × 17" (Ledger),

1/2 × 14" (Legal), 11 × 8 1/2", 8 1/2 × 11" (Letter), 5 1/2 ×81/2" (Statement), 8 1/2 × 13" (Oficio II), 8K,

8 and 16K.

Note When loading paper into the cassette, set it with the side to be printed facing up.

Pull the cassette out toward you as far as it will go.

Note Do not pull more than one cassette out at a time.

Push down on the cassette base plate and secure it.

Grasp the paper width adjusting tab and adjust the

width guides to the paper size.

Important! Make sure that the width guides are flush against the paper. If there is space between the guides

and the paper, set the width guides again.

Note The paper sizes are marked in the cassette.

2-2

Grasp the paper length adjusting tab and adjust the

length guide to the paper size.

Important! • Make sure that the length guide is flush against

the paper. If there is space between the guide and the paper, set the length guide again.

• When setting 11 × 17" (Ledger) paper, move the

paper length guide to the right end and push it down as shown in the illustration.

Note The paper sizes are impressed in the cassette.

Preparations

Set the paper straight from the upper part.

Important! • Be careful not to bend or crease the paper when

inserting it into the cassette. Creases in the paper may lead to paper jams.

• The maximum paper limit indicator A is provided

on a paper width guide. Make sure that the paper loaded is below the maximum paper limit indicator.

• When loading paper into the cassette, set it with

the side which faced the top of its packaging facing up.

• Be sure to adjust the width and length guides to

the paper size before loading the paper. Failure to do so may result in paper skewing or jamming.

• If the length and width guides are not flush against the paper, a size that is different from the

actual size may be displayed on the message display.

• When the paper has become wrinkled from moisture and cannot be fed, set the paper so that

the wrinkled side is toward the length guide.

2-3

Preparations

Affix the label supplied so that the paper size set in the

cassette can be identified from the front of the cassette.

Gently push in the cassette.

Important! When the machine will not be used for a long period of time, remove the paper from the cassette,

put it in a storage bag, and seal the bag in order to protect the paper from moisture.

Setting Paper in the Multi Purpose tray

In addition to standard paper and recycled paper, special paper can also be used. Be sure to set special paper in the multi purpose tray.

Up to 100 sheets of standard (80 g/m²) paper (25 sheets of A3, B4, Folio, 11 × 17" (Ledger),

1/2 × 14" (Legal), 8 1/2 × 13" (Oficio II), or 8K) can be set. The paper sizes that can be used are: A3

Adjust the sliders to the width of the paper to be set.

Preparations

Set the paper along the sliders and put it in until it

stops.

Important! • Always straighten out postcards and other types of thick paper that are curled before using

them. The paper may not be fed depending on the paper quality.

• When loading paper into the multi-purpose tray, set it with the side which faced the top of its

packaging facing down. If the front end of the paper is curled, straighten it out before setting it.

• Make sure there are no creases, etc. in the paper. Creases in the paper may lead to paper

jams.

• Make sure that the slider is flush against the edge of paper. If not, adjust the slider until it is

flush with the edge of paper.

Note When loading paper into the multi-purpose tray, set it with the side to be printed facing down.
