OTES
:
• Always load only the print materials specified in the
Specifications on page A.5 to avoid paper jams and print quality
problems.
• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes and labels before
loading them into the manual feeder.
• When you print on 76 mm X 127 mm (3 X 5 in.) sized media with
loading into the tray, open the rear output tray.

Load a sheet of the print material with the print side face
up into the center of the manual feeder.
For envelopes, load a sheet with the flap side face down
and with the stamp area on the top left side.
For transparencies, hold them by the edges and avoid
touching the print side. Oils from your fingers can cause
print quality problems.

OTE
