• Do not push the paper width guide far enough to cause
the materials to warp.
• If you do not adjust the paper width guide, it may cause
paper jams.
In the manual tray
The manual tray can hold special size and type of print material, such as
transparency, postcard, note card, and envelope. The manual tray can
hold 1 sheet of paper.
To load paper in the manual tray:
1 Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing up.
2 Adjust the manual tray paper width guides to the width of the paper.
Do not force too much, or the paper will be bent, which will result in
a paper jam or skew.
Notes
• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at
a time in the manual tray.
• You can load previously printed paper. The printed side should
be facing down with an uncurled edge at the front. If you
experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around.
Note that print quality is not guaranteed.
