page 3-11 for the procedure.
Paper trays air adjustment
Blowers help control the environmental conditions in the paper 
trays to ensure optimum print capability:
• Each paper tray has two blowers. The lead edge blower is on 
at all times and produces heated air if one of the following 
selections are made: Coated paper, Transparencies, or plain 
paper 106 g/m
2
 or heavier. The trail edge blower is on at all 
times and does not produce heated air. 
• The paper trays also have air adjustment levers on the drawer 
to regulate the direction of the air. If the paper weight is 
between 60 and 256 g/m
2
, the position of the air adjust levers 
should be toward the front of the tray. If the paper weight is 
between 257 and 300 g/m
2
, the position of the air adjust levers 
should be positioned toward the rear of the tray.
Slide the Air Adjustment Levers to accommodate the weight of the 
paper loaded. Slide the lever forward for paper between 60 and 
256 g/m
2
. For papers between 257 and 300 g/m

, slide levers 
toward the back of the tray.
