1 - 46 ABOUT THIS PRINTER
Guidelines for printing on both sides of the paper
■ If the paper is thin, it may wrinkle.
■ If paper is curled, straighten it and then put it back in the paper tray.
■ You should use regular paper. Do not use bond paper.
■ When you put paper in the paper tray, first empty the tray then put the printed page in it, with the
printed side face up. (Do not add the printed pages to the top of the stack of unprinted paper.)
■ If the paper is not feeding properly, it may be curled. Remove the paper and straighten it.
For Thicker paper that has curled once the first side has been printed on, and you cannot feed the
paper for the second time from manual feed tray or MP tray to allow the other side of the paper to
be printed on:
At the back of the printer, open the back output tray and push down the blue tabs on the left and
right hand sides (as shown in the figure below). When you have finished printing, close the back
output tray to reset the two blue tabs back to their original position.
