Printing guide
Get the most out of your printer by properly loading the
trays and setting the types and sizes. Never mix media
types within a tray.
Note: Paper Size cannot be adjusted when
auto size sensing is enabled. Auto size
sensing is enabled by default for printer
trays, but is not available for the
multipurpose feeder.
Load paper or other print media
To help prevent jams:
• Flex all stacks of print media back and forth to
loosen them, and then fan them before loading.
Do not fold or crease the print media. Straighten
the edges of the stack on a level surface.
• Do not exceed the maximum stack height.
Overfilling may cause jams.
• Never remove paper trays while a print job is
printing. It could damage the tray or the printer.

5 Place the paper against the back left corner of

6 Squeeze the front guide lever and slide the guide

8 If you are loading a different type of media than
was previously loaded in the tray, change the
Paper Type setting for that tray on the operator
panel. See “Set Paper Type and Paper Size” on
page 2.
