Tips
Keep your paper in good condition for printing
●
Store the photo paper in its original packaging or in a resealable plastic bag to
prevent excessive curling, which can prevent proper feeding.
● Keep the paper flat in a cool, dry place. If the corners curl, place the paper in a plastic
bag and gently bend it in the opposite direction until it lies flat.
● Handle the paper by the edges to prevent smears and fingerprints on the surface.
● Do not leave media in the main tray when you are not printing, because the media
can curl when left exposed to the air.
Paper loading tips
●
Be sure to adjust the length of the main tray to match the paper size you are using
and reseat the tray back in the printer before you set the paper-length guide against
the paper. If you set the paper-length guide first, and then adjust the tray length, the
paper might jam.
● Load only one type and size of paper at a time in the main tray.
● After loading paper, extend the output tray extension and flip up the paper catch to
hold your printed pages. This prevents printed pages from dropping off the output
tray.
Print tips
●
If you are printing photos, transfer the photos from your digital camera to the
computer using the steps outlined in your camera documentation. You can then
open the photos in your image editing software program and print them from there.
