Loading trays
Your printer has two standard sources, the 250-sheet tray (standard tray) and the multipurpose
feeder. For more information, see Loading and using the multipurpose feeder. Load the print
media you use for the majority of your print jobs in the standard 250-sheet tray.
Proper print media loading helps prevent jams and helps make your printing trouble-free.
Before loading print media, know the recommended print side of the print media you are using. This
information is usually indicated on the print media package.
Do not remove trays while a job prints. Doing so may cause a jam.
