11 Paper and Other Media
The machine is designed to use various paper types and other media. This chapter
provides information on loading paper and other types of media into the machine.
Loading Paper
The machine can be equipped with various paper trays. This section provides
information on how to load paper into each type of tray.
NOTE: Make sure the side and rear paper guides on the trays are properly positioned
to match the size of paper loaded. If there is a gap between the paper stack and the
guides, paper may not be fed to the machine properly, or paper jams may occur.
NOTE: The bottom side of each sheet will be printed on for paper loaded in all trays
except for the bypass tray. The paper loaded in the bypass tray will be printed on the
top side.
For information on configurable paper sizes and media types for each tray, refer to
Supported Paper Sizes and Types on page 173.
For information on the acceptable range of paper sizes and capacity for each tray, refer
to Paper Supply in the Appendix chapter on page 327.
Preparing Paper for Loading
Before loading paper into the paper trays, fan the edges. This procedure separates any
sheets of paper that are stuck together and reduces the possibility of paper jams.
NOTE: To avoid paper jams and misfeeds, do not remove paper from its packaging
until required.
Loading the Paper Trays
Depending on the machine configuration, up to four paper trays will be available
excluding the bypass tray.
NOTE: If the machine is processing a job, do not open the active paper tray.
1. Pull out the paper tray towards
you.
NOTE: To avoid jams and misfeeds, do not load paper on top of any remaining paper
in the tray. Remove the paper, and reload it on top of the new stock loaded.
