When the paper scrap tray is full
When printing, a margin is left between printouts. The
excess portions of these margins are cut and dropped
into the paper scrap tray.

paper only (for 170 printouts). However, the scrap tray
may fill up sooner for some reason. When the paper
scrap tray is full, throw the scraps of paper away.
• Be sure to throw the scraps of paper away each time
you have used up one roll of the paper.
When it is full, throw these scraps of paper away as
follows.
