specifications, see page A-2.
The maximum paper weight is 53 lb (199 g/m

) from Tray 1.
Note Heavy paper and very small or very large custom-size paper should
be printed from Tray 1 to the rear output bin. Open the rear output
bin to use it (page 26).
The printer’s control panel can be set for one custom size at a time.
Do not load more than one size of custom paper into the printer.
When you print large numbers of small or narrow media and
standard paper, for best printing performance print paper first, then
the small or narrow media. To alternate paper and small or narrow
media, from the Configuration Menu in the printer’s control panel
select
SMALL PAPER SPEED=SLOW .
For information on setting custom paper sizes, see page 40.
