Using the Multi-Purpose Feeder
The Multi-Purpose Feeder serves as another tray for loading any
type of media that ranges in size from 89 x 254 mm to 216 x 356 mm
(3.5 x 10 in. to 8.5 x 14 in.). You can use it to load a single sheet or a stack
of media, depending on the media’s type and thickness.
Use the Multi-Purpose Feeder to accomplish the following:
■
Print on standard and specialty media
Standard media
■
Laser paper
■
Transparencies
Specialty media
■
Glossy coated paper
■
Card stock
■
Labels
■
Fabric transfer
■
Envelopes (#10 size or larger)
Note
For detailed information on loading specialty media and setting
the appropriate media thickness, refer to “Loading specialty media
in the Multi-Purpose Feeder” on page 4-44.

Duplex printing (double-sided) on laser paper
Caution
Use laser bond paper for duplexing; two-sided printing on
specialty media can shorten component life. For opacity and
feed reliability, use paper that is at least 100 g/m

(28 lb. bond).
For best results, do not use heavy toner coverage on Side 1.
