• Load envelopes with the flap side up and to the right.
Warning—Potential Damage: Never use envelopes with stamps, clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or
self‑stick adhesives. These envelopes may severely damage the printer.
Notes:
• Do not exceed the maximum stack height by forcing paper or transparencies under the stack height limiter.
• Load only one size and type of paper at a time.
5 Adjust the width guide to lightly touch the edge of the stack. Make sure the paper or specialty media fits loosely in
the multipurpose feeder, lies flat, and is not bent or wrinkled.
6 From the printer control panel, set the Paper Size and Paper Type for the multipurpose feeder (MP Feeder Size and
MP Feeder Type) based on the paper or specialty media loaded.
Linking and unlinking trays
Linking trays
Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or for printing multiple copies. When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds
from the next linked tray. When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any trays, the trays are
automatically linked. The Paper Size setting is automatically sensed according to the position of the paper guides in
each tray except Tray 1 and the multipurpose feeder. The Paper Size setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set
manually from the Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting must be set for all trays from the Paper Type menu. The
Paper Type menu and the Paper Size menu are both available from the Paper Size/Type menu.
