There are two ways of feeding media through your printer:
„ Cassette feed (automatically)
„ Manual feed (from the multipurpose tray)

Cassette feed automatically pulls media from one of the cassettes at
the front of the printer. The cassettes handle media as light as 17 lbs
(64 g/m
2 ) or as heavy as 28 lbs (105 g/m 2 ), and the maximum loading
depth is 1.97" (50 mm).
See “Loading the Media Cassette” on page 2-2, for details on how to
load the cassette.

Manual feed is the method of feeding single sheets or small incre-
ments of media, such as envelopes, labels, paper, odd-sized media,
or transparencies from the multipurpose tray only. Media weight can
range from 17 to 34 lbs (64 to 128 g/m
2 ).
» Note: Use the face-up output bin (described in the following section)
when printing heavy-weight stock and envelopes. Using this bin
bypasses some internal printer rollers and results in less curl. It is
used often with manual feed.
Manual feed is very useful for
„ Odd-sized media (cut sheets)
„ Transparencies
„
Heavy-weight labels and envelopes
Use the following instructions to manual-feed media:
1 Adjust the media guides on the multipurpose tray to match
the width of the media you are using.
