Printing from the Paper Cassette
Up to approximately 250 sheets of plain paper (64 g/m
2
) in sizes of A4, B5, A5,
Legal, Letter, and Executive can be loaded in the paper cassette (Cassette1) of the
optional 250-sheet paper feeder. If the paper source runs out of paper, the paper
lamp (red) will flash and you will need to load more paper.
Loading Paper into the Paper Cassette
Use the following procedure to load the paper cassette with paper.
Always load the paper lengthways when loading the paper cassette.
IMPORTANT
•
When loading paper for the first time after installing the paper feeder, be sure to turn the
printer on at least once before loading the paper.
•
Do not pull paper out of the paper cassette while the printer is printing. Doing so can
cause paper jams and printer faults.
•
Do not load the paper cassette with anything other than plain paper (64 to 105 g/m
2
).
Doing so can cause paper jams and printer faults.
•
Do not load paper that has jagged edges, creases, or that is extremely curly. Doing so
can cause paper jams and printer faults.
•
The number of sheets of plain paper that can be loaded in the paper cassette is
approximately 250 (for 64 g/m
2
paper). Make absolutely sure that you do not load paper
beyond the paper limit marks. Loading paper past the paper limit marks can cause paper
feeding errors.
