Loading in manual feeder/multi-purpose tray
The manual feeder/multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and
types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes.
Tips on using the manual feeder/multi-purpose tray
• If you select Manual Feeder for the paper source in your
software application, you need to press (cancel
button) each time you print a page and load only one type,
size and weight of print media at a time on the manual
tray.
• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper while printing
when there is still paper in the manual feeder/multi-
purpose tray.
• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge
going into the manual feeder/multi-purpose tray first and
be placed in the center of the tray.
• To ensure printing quality and to prevent paper jams, only
load the available paper (see "Print media specifications"
on page 65).
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before
loading them into the manual feeder/multi-purpose tray.
• When printing on special media, you must follow the
loading guidelines (see "Printing on special media" on
page 31).
• When papers overlap when printing using the manual
feeder/multi-purpose tray, open tray 1 and remove the
overlapping papers then try printing again.
• When paper does not feed well while printing, push the
paper in manually until it starts feeding automatically.
