Loading paper
Load paper in the cassettes.
Precaution for Loading Paper
Fan the paper, then tap it on a level surface.
In addition, note the following points.
⢠If the paper is curled or folded, straighten it before loading. Paper that is curled or folded may cause a jam.
⢠Avoid exposing opened paper to high humidity as dampness can be a cause of problems. Seal any remaining paper
after loading in the multi purpose tray or cassettes back in the paper storage bag.
⢠Leaving paper in the cassette for a long time may cause a discoloration of paper by heat from the cassette heater.
⢠If the machine will not be used for a prolonged period, protect all paper from humidity by removing it from the
cassettes and sealing it in the paper storage bag.
If you copy onto used paper (paper already used for printing), do not use paper that is stapled or
clipped together. This may damage the machine or cause poor image quality.
If you use special paper such as letterhead, paper with holes or paper with pre-prints like logo or company
name, refer to the following:
