Loading Paper in the Cassettes
The 2 standard cassettes will each hold plain paper, recycled paper or color paper.
Cassette 1 holds up to 500 sheets of A4 or smaller plain paper (80 g/m
2
) or up to 250 sheets of B4 or larger
plain paper (80 g/m
2
). Cassette 2 holds up to 500 sheets of plain paper (80 g/m
2
) (or up to 550 sheets of 64 g/
m
2
plain paper).
The following paper sizes are supported: Ledger, Legal, Oficio II, 8.5×13.5", Letter, Letter-R, Statement, A3,
B4, A4, A4-R, B5, B5-R, A5, Folio, 8K, 16K, and 16K-R.
IMPORTANT:
• For clearer and brighter color copies, use the special color paper.
You should not use inkjet printer paper or any paper with a special surface coating. (Such paper may cause
paper jams or other faults.)
• When using media types other than plain paper (such as recycled or colored paper), always specify the
media type setting. (Refer to Specifying Paper Size and Media Type for the Cassettes on page 2-28)
The cassettes can hold paper with weights up to 163 g/m
2
. If you are using a paper weight between 106
and 163 g/m
2
, set the media type to Thick.
• Do not load thick paper that is heavier than 163 g/m
2
in the cassettes. Use the multi purpose tray for paper
that is heavier than 163 g/m
2
.
1 Pull the cassette out toward you until it stops.
NOTE: Do not pull out more than one cassette at a
time.
2 Using the paper length guide, move the plate to fit
the paper.
When loading A4 or smaller paper into cassette 1,
lift up the paper length guide. For B4 or larger
paper, lower the paper length guide.
NOTE: Paper sizes are marked on the cassette.
