software or printer driver.
Verify that the correct media type is selected in
the software or printer driver.
The input tray is overfilled. Remove excess media from the input tray. Do
not load more than 200 sheets of glossy paper
or glossy film, or more than 100 transparencies

stack height for Tray 1.
Media in another input tray is the same size as
the transparencies, and the printer is defaulting
to the other tray.
Make sure that the input tray containing the
transparencies or glossy paper is selected in the
software application or printer driver. Use the
printer control panel to configure the tray to the
media type loaded. For more information about
how to access the printer drivers, see
Accessing
