BEFORE USING THE MACHINE

Loading the bypass tray
1
Unfold the bypass tray.
When feeding large
paper such as 8-1/2" x
14" and 11" x 17", pull
out the bypass tray
extension.
2
Set the paper guides to the copy
paper width.
3
Insert the paper (print face down) all
the way into the bypass tray.
To prevent a misfeed,
verify once more that the
paper guides are
adjusted to the width of
the paper.
Important points when inserting paper in the bypass tray
• Up to 100 sheets of standard copy paper can be set in the bypass tray.
• Be sure to place 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" size paper or envelopes horizontally as shown in the following diagram ( ).
• When loading envelopes, make sure that they are straight and flat and do not have loosely glued construction
flaps (not the closure flap).
• Special papers except SHARP recommended transparency film, labels, and envelopes must be fed one sheet at a
time through the bypass tray.
• When adding paper, first remove any paper remaining in the tray, combine it with the paper to be added and then
reload as a single stack. The paper to be added must be the same size and type as the paper already in the tray.
• Do not use paper that is smaller than the original. This may cause smudges or unclean images.
• Do not use paper that has already been printed on by a laser printer or plain paper fax machine. This may cause
smudges or unclean images.
If you loaded paper in the bypass tray, press
the [TRAY SELECT] key ( ) to select the
bypass tray. The bypass tray will not be
selected automatically.
