• Check the paper setting before printing. If the paper differs from the paper setting, a mismatch error
will occur when you print.
• Straighten curled or warped paper before loading.
• When loading paper on a tray which has a few sheets of paper, multiple sheets of paper may be
fed at once from the tray. Take out all sheets, fan the sheets, and then load them again.
