Loading the Media Cassette
This section discusses loading the media cassette with paper. If you’re using another
type of media, refer to “Using Media Other Than Paper” on page 3-7 for information.
Paper Specifications
Prepare the Paper
1 Take a stack of about 250 sheets (
½ ream).
»Note:
Don’t unwrap the paper above the printer as this might cause paper
particles to fall into the printer.
2 Holding the stack with one hand, fan the
paper with the other.
This gets air through the sheets and prevents
static buildup.
3 Take off the top and bottom sheets.
Residual glue buildup on these sheets may cause media jams.
