Manually Feeding Pages from the MP
Tray
On rare occasions (when printing transparencies, for instance), you may
want the printer to stop after each page. Usually, you select Manual Feed
through your software. However, if it is not available you can set MANUAL
FEED=ON in the Printing Menu of the printer’s control panel.
To manually print a single sheet of paper with software:
1 Make sure the MP Tray is empty.
2 In your software application’s print setup, set Paper Source to Manual Feed
or complete the procedure below.
Note
The paper source you select in your software application overrides the
control panel setting. To manually feed paper, be sure you select Manual
Feed in your software application’s print setup.
3 Send the document to the printer. The printer goes off-line. The control
panel displays the message, MF FEED LETTER, if you choose Letter size paper.
4 Place the sheet of paper into the MP Tray with the side-to-be-printed down.
Move the paper width guides to lightly touch the edges of the paper. The
printer automatically pulls the sheet of paper into the printer.
To select Manual Feed from the control panel:
1 Press [On Line] to take the printer off line.
2 Press [Menu] once to reach PRINTING MENU.
3 Press [Item] until MANUAL FEED=setting appears.
4 Press [+/-] once to reach MANUAL FEED=ON.
5 Press [Enter] to save your selection.
6 Press [On Line] to put the printer back on line.
