Paper Handling
Chapter 2 Paper Handling 23
Loading Paper Manually
The manual feed slot allows you to load paper manually, one sheet at a
time. You can load transparencies, labels, envelopes, postcards, or other
special paper. You can also load plain paper, which is useful when you
want to use paper that is a different size from the paper in the cassette.
Before loading paper manually, always select the paper delivery first. For
details, see “Selecting Paper Delivery” on page 13.
Set the sheet of paper so that the printing side faces up and the top of the
paper is inserted first. Slide the sheet of paper into the manual feed slot
until it stops (see
➀ in the illustrations below). Adjust the paper guides to
the sheet of paper (see
➁ in the illustrations below).
❏ The manual feed has priority over the cassette.
❏ Often applications will let you change the feeding direction of
envelopes. Confirm the feeding direction of envelopes before printing.
❏ If a postcard is not fed smoothly into the printer, gently push the top of
the postcard toward the manual feed slot until the roller inside the
printer takes the card and feeds it into the printer.
❏ When printing on postcards, the printing quality for non-characters
(e.g. grayscale illustrations) may deteriorate.
