Ordinary office-weight paper of standard sizes can be fed automatically
into the printer from the paper cassette. A different cassette is required for
each size. For heavier-than-normal paper, envelopes, mailing labels, and
transparencies, use the manual feed slot, located on the top of the paper
cassette’s cover.
The printer’s on-off switch is located at the rear.

Front panel mode-using the grey buttons
