PRINTING ON SPECIAL PRINT MATERIALS

The machine can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as

postcards, note cards, and envelopes. Especially, it is useful for single page

printing on letterhead or colored paper.

Feeding the print material manually

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

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

tray. This also applies to other types of print media.

Print media should be loaded face up with the side you want to print, and

the top edge going into the tray first. Place print materials 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 38.)

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

them into the tray.
