• The stack of media is pushed against the right side of the IN tray.
• The paper width adjustment selector is pushed against the left edge of the

media. (Refer to page 3-3.)

Make sure that there is no more than 0.2 inch (5 mm) of media in the IN tray. If you
are printing transparencies, make sure than you have loaded no more than 20
sheets into the IN tray.

3.

Do not load paper on top of paper already in the IN tray. Load the paper into
an empty IN tray as a single stack.

the IN tray.

Under very humid conditions, transparencies can stick together. If this is the case,
feed them by hand, one at a time.

Make sure that you have selected the automatic sheet feeding option in your
software. If the software does not allow you to specify the media source, use the
DJPMenu configuration utility to select the printer setting. If Manual Feed is
currently selected, the printer paper feed rollers will not remain turned on long
enough for the printer to load a sheet from the sheet feeder. See “Changing the
Printer Settings” in chapter 2.
