Paper Types and Sizes
This section describes the type, size, feed direction, and maximum amount of pa-
per that can be loaded into each paper tray in this printer.
Important
❒
If you use damp or curled paper, a misfeed might occur. In such a case, try
turning over the paper stack in the paper tray. If there is no improvement,
change to paper with less curl.
❒
Be sure to set the paper size dial to match the actual paper size loaded in the
tray. When the actual paper size is not shown on the dial, set the dial to “
p
”
and selected the paper size using the operation panel.
❒
For Tray 1, 2, and 3, the dial setting overrides settings selected with the oper-
ation panel.
Note
❒
The following conventions are used to describe paper feed direction:

When loading paper having the same size in more than one tray, it is recom-
mended that you load paper in the same direction.
❒
The supported paper sizes may differ depending on the memory capacity of
the printer. ⇒ P.117 “Memory Capacity and Paper Size”
