6.1 Please note the following points
What should I watch out for when loading paper?
To avoid paper misfeeds in the laser printer, please observe the following
points:
● Do not use any paper with the following features:
❍ Paper that has already been used in a thermal or ink-jet printer.
❍ Paper that is too thin or too thick.
❍ Folded or wavy paper.
❍ Paper having binding holes or perforations.
❍ Paper with a surface that is too smooth, too rough, or irregular.
❍ Specially coated paper such as carbon paper or paper with an
adhesive surface.
❍ Paper that is not cut at right angles.
❍ Paper that is held together by glue, adhesive, or clips.
❍ Paper with labels that detach easily.
❍ Warped or curled-up postcards.
● Please note that the stack of paper in the paper tray should not exceed
the “max.” mark.

Note
When paper is loaded, the orientation is based on the format marks in
the paper source units.
What should I watch out for when loading envelopes?
To avoid envelope misfeeds in the laser printer, please observe the
following points:
● Do not use self-adhesive envelopes or those with a tear-off strip,
closures, or a window.
● Place the envelopes in the tray long edge first.
● Place the envelopes in the tray with the flap down so that the upper
surface of the envelopes is lying against the side of the tray with the
feed roller.
