optional 550‑sheet tray, an optional 2,000‑sheet tray, a multipurpose feeder, and an optional 550‑sheet specialty media
drawer. Load the paper or specialty media used for the majority of print jobs in Tray 1. Proper paper loading prevents
jams and facilitates trouble‑free printing.
Note: The C736n, C736dn, and C736dtn model printers will support a total of four optional input sources. The
C734n, C734dn, C734dtn, and C734dnw model printers will support a total of three optional input sources.
Do not remove trays while a job prints or while Busy blinks on the printer control panel. Doing so may cause a jam.
1 Grasp the handle, and then pull the tray out. Remove the tray completely.
