Loading Paper in Trays
This section describes how to load paper into the paper feed tray or onto the bypass tray.
Loading Paper into a Standard or Optional Paper Feed Tray
The following explains loading procedure for the standard paper feed tray.
• Do not put your hands inside the printer when the input tray is removed. Some internal parts
become hot and are a burn hazard.
• Do not pull out the paper tray forcefully. If you do, the tray might fall and cause an injury.
• Take care to avoid cutting your hands when loading paper.
• Make sure paper is not stacked higher than the upper limit mark inside the paper feed tray. Excessive
stacking can cause paper jams.
• Do not mix different types of paper in the same paper tray.
• After loading paper in the tray, specify the paper type and size using the control panel. This printer
does not automatically detect the size of paper loaded in a tray. Make sure the paper size and type
is selected using the control panel.
• If the bypass tray is open, close it before pulling out Tray 1.
• Do not move the side paper guides forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.
• Do not move the end paper guide forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.
• When inserting the tray, make sure it is not slanted. Inserting it at a slant can damage the printer.
• Curled paper may jam, straighten curled paper before loading.
• When loading paper, take care not to touch the surface of the paper.
