Loading paper in the multi-purpose tray

The multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print material,

such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is useful for single page

printing on letterhead or colored paper.

Tips on using the multi-purpose tray

Load only one size of print media at a time in the multi-purpose tray.

To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in

the multi-purpose tray. This also applies to other types of print

media.

Print media should be loaded face down with the top edge going into

the multi-purpose tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.

Always load only the specified print media to avoid paper jams and

print quality problems. (See "Selecting print media" on page 33.)

Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading

them into the multi-purpose tray.

1. Hold the handle of multi-purpose tray and pull it down to open.

2. Load the paper.

3. Squeeze the multi-purpose tray paper width guides and adjust them to

the width of the paper. Do not force too much, or the paper will be bent,

which will result in a paper jam or skew.

4. After loading paper, set the paper type and size for the multi-purpose

tray. See Software section for PC-printing.

5. After printing, close the multi-purpose tray.

SETTING THE PAPER SIZE AND TYPE

After loading paper in the paper tray, you need to set the paper size and

type using the control panel buttons. These settings will apply to Copy and

Fax modes. For PC-printing, you need to select the paper size and type in

the application program you use on your PC.
1. Press Menu until System Setup appears on the bottom line of the

display and press OK.

2. Press the left/right arrow until Paper Setup appears and press OK.
3. Press OK when Paper Size appears.
4. Press the left/right arrow until the paper tray you want appears and

press OK.

5. Press the left/right arrow until the paper size you are using appears and

press OK.

6. Press Back to return to the upper level.
7. Press the left/right arrow until Paper Type appears and press OK.
8. Press the left/right arrow until the paper type you are using appears and

press OK.

9. Press Stop/Clear to return to ready mode.

If you want to load the used paper, place the paper with the

printed side facing down.

If you are using paper, flex or fan the edge of the paper stack

to separate the pages before loading.

Depending on the media type you are using, keep the following

loading guidelines:

Envelopes: Flap side down and with the stamp area on the

top left side.

Labels: Print side up and top short edge entering the machine

first.

Preprinted paper: Design side up with the top edge toward the

machine.

Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the

machine first.

Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down with

an uncurled edge toward the machine.

The settings made from the printer driver override the settings on

the control panel.
