To load the paper tray:

1.

Retract the paper guides.

Squeeze the paper length guide (C) and move it to the back of the tray. Slide the
paper width guide (B) out to its widest position.

2.

Insert paper into the tray.

Fan the paper before inserting it into the tray. Insert one end of the stack of
paper underneath the two corner brackets (A) at the front end of the paper tray
(see note at the bottom of the previous page), and then lower the other end of
the stack into the tray. Letterhead should be inserted face up with the top edge
at the front of the paper tray for short-edge-feed. For long-edge feed, the top
edge of the letterhead should face left.

3.

Adjust the paper guides.

Adjust the paper width guide so that the rails touch the edges of the paper.
Adjust the paper length guide so that it rests in the labeled notch corresponding
to the paper size that is loaded.

Note:

If you are using the optional envelope tray, move the paper length guide to the notch (labeled or

unlabeled) that corresponds to the length of your envelope. Insert envelopes with the flap down, and with
the top edge aligned with the left side of the paper tray.

4.

Insert the paper tray into the printer.
The paper tray inserted directly into the Elite XL’s built-in tray slot is always
referred to as Tray 1 in both Macintosh and PC printing software menus and
dialog boxes.
