Loading custom media into Trays 2, 3, 4, and 5

Follow this procedure to load custom size paper in the tray.

CAUTION

To avoid jams, never add or remove a tray during printing.

CAUTION

The paper path for Tray 3 passes through Tray 2. If Tray 2 is partially pulled out or removed,
paper from Tray 3 cannot feed into the printer. This causes the printer to stop and generate
a message that Tray 2 must be installed. Similarly, Trays 2, 3, and 4 must be closed for
paper from Tray 5 to feed into the printer.

CAUTION

Do not print cardstock, envelopes, or unsupported sizes of media from Tray 2, 3, 4, or 5.
Print on these types of media only from Tray 1. Do not overfill the input tray or open it while it
is in use. Doing so can cause paper jams.
