Selecting an output location
The printer has two output locations; the rear cover (face up) and the
output tray (face down).
The printer sends output to the output tray by default. To use the output
tray, make sure that the rear cover is closed.
Notes
• If paper coming out of the output tray has problems, such as
excessive curl, try printing to the rear cover.
• To avoid paper jams, do not open or close the rear cover while
the printer is printing.
Printing to the output tray (Face down)
The output tray collects paper face down, in the order in which the sheets
were printed. The tray should be used for most print jobs.

Printing to the rear cover (Face up)
Using the rear cover, paper comes out of the printer face up.
Printing from the multi-purpose tray to the rear cover provides a straight
paper path. Using the rear cover might improve the output quality with
special print media.
To use the rear cover, open it by pulling down.
Caution
The fuser area inside the rear cover of your printer becomes
very hot when in use. Take care when you access this area.
