Load the Paper in Your Printer
The method used for loading paper depends on the paper type.

matic feed mode to print a number of sheets at one time. For
details, refer to the section entitled “Loading Paper” in Chapter 1.

tion “M”; for automatic feed mode, set it to “A”. However,
be sure to set the switch to “M” for postcards.
