Printing on custom-sized print media or cardstock
Postcards, 3-by-5-inch (index) cards, and other custom-sized print media can be printed from
tray 1. The minimum size is 76 by 127 mm (3 by 5 inches) and the maximum size is 216 by 356
mm (8.5 by 14 inches).
Always insert the short edge first into tray 1. To print in landscape mode, make this selection
through your program. Inserting paper long edge first might cause a paper jam.
In your program, set margins at least 6.4 mm (.25 inches) away from the edges of the print
media.
Choose the custom media you are using as the Type in the printer driver and set the correct
Size.
Lower the rear output door to use the straight-through paper path and reduce curl.
See Print media specifications on page 109 for more information.
