Load special print media such as envelopes, labels, and grayscale transparencies, in tray 1 only.
Load only paper in optional tray 2 or optional tray 3.
Loading tray 1
Tray 1 (the multipurpose tray) holds up to 125 sheets of paper or other
print media, or it holds up to 10 envelopes.
For information about loading special print media such as labels and
grayscale transparencies, see “Printing on special print media” on

To load tray 1
CAUTION
Avoid adding print media to tray 1 while the printer is printing, or jams
can occur.
1 Open tray 1.
2 Slide out the tray extender. If the print media being loaded is longer
than 229 mm (9 inches), also open the additional tray extender.
3 Slide the width guides slightly wider than the print media.
4 Place print media into the tray with the side to be printed up, and the
top, short edge in first.
Note
If you are manually duplexing, see “Printing on both sides (duplexing
manually)” on page 48 for loading instructions.
5 Slide the paper width guides inward until they lightly touch the print
media stack on both sides without bending it. Make sure the print
media fits under the tabs on the width guides.
CAUTION
Wait for the printer to finish printing before closing tray 1 (optional).
Closing the tray before the printer finishes can cause jams.
6 On the back of the printer, lower the rear output door if you are
printing on special media, such as labels, envelopes, or heavy or
light paper, to prevent curl.
