Tips on using the bypass tray

 

l

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

 

l

To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in the bypass tray. This also applies to other types of print materials.

 

l

Print materials should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the bypass tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.

 

l

Always load only the print materials specified in

"Print Media Guidelines"

to avoid paper jams and print quality problems.


 

l

Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the bypass tray.

 

l

When you print on 3 by 5 in. (76 by 127 mm) sized media on the bypass tray, open the rear cover for straight paper path to avoid paper jams.

 

l

Make sure to open the rear cover when you print on transparencies. If not, they may tear while exiting the machine.
