Loading the multipurpose feeder
The multipurpose feeder can hold several sizes and types of print media, such as transparencies, labels, card stock, and
envelopes. It can be used for single-page or manual printing, or as an additional tray.
The multipurpose feeder can hold approximately:
• 100 sheets of 75‑g/m
2
(20‑lb) paper
• 10 envelopes
• 75 transparencies
The multipurpose feeder accepts paper or specialty media within the following dimensions:
• Width—89 mm (3.5 in.) to 229 mm (9.02 in.)
• Length—127 mm (5 in.) to 1270 mm (50 in.)
Note: Maximum width and length can be applied only to short-edge feeding.
Note: Do not add or remove paper or specialty media when the printer is printing from the multipurpose feeder or
when the printer control panel indicator light is blinking. Doing so may cause a jam.
1 Pull down the multipurpose feeder door.
2 For paper or specialty media that is longer than letter-size paper, gently pull the extension until it is fully extended.
3 Flex the sheets of paper or specialty media back and forth to loosen them. Do not fold or crease them. Straighten
the edges on a level surface.
