Print Media Usage Guidelines
The printer tray accommodates most sizes and types of paper and other specialty media. Follow these
guidelines when loading paper and media in the tray:
• Fan paper or other specialty media before loading in the multipurpose feeder (MPF).
• Do not print on label stock once a label has been removed from a sheet.
• Use only paper envelopes. Do not use envelopes with windows, metal clasps, or adhesives with
release strips.
• Print all envelopes single-sided only.
• Some wrinkling and embossing may occur when printing envelopes.
• Do not overload the paper tray. Do not load print media above the fill line on the inside of the
paper width guides.
• Adjust the paper width guides to fit the paper size.
• If excessive jams occur, use paper or other media from a new package.

WARNING:
• Do not use conductive paper such as origami paper, carbonic paper or conductively-coated paper.
When paper jam occurs, it may cause short-circuit and eventually a fire accident.
