Menu overview and basic setup3 Loading paper in the tray/ optional tray1Pull out the paper tray.2 Flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading papers.3 Place paper with the side you want to print on facing down.4 Slide the paper length guide until it lightly touches the end of the paper stack.5 Squeeze the paper width guide and slide it to the edge of the paper stack without causing it to bend.
Media and tray 382. Menu overview and basic setup • Do not push the paper width guide too far causing the media to warp. • If you do not adjust the paper width guide, it may cause paper jams.• Do not use a paper with a leading-edge curl, it may cause a paper jam or the paper can be wrinkled. 6 Insert the tray back into the machine.7 Set the paper type and size for tray 1 (see "Setting the paper size and type" on page 46).
Media and tray 392. Menu overview and basic setup4 Loading in multi-purpose trayThe multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes (see "Print media specifications" on page 125). Tips on using the multi-purpose tray• To prevent paper jams, do not add paper while printing when there is still paper in the multi-purpose tray.• Print media should be loaded face up with the top edge going into the multi-purpose tray first and be placed in the center of the tray.• To ensure printing quality and to prevent paper jams, only load the available paper (see "Print media specifications" on page 125).• Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the multi-purpose tray.• When printing on special media, you must follow the loading guidelines (see "Printing on special media" on page 41).• When papers overlap when printing using the multi-purpose tray, open tray 1 and remove the papers then try printing again. • When paper does not feed well while printing, push the paper in manually until it starts feeding automatically. 1Open the multi-purpose tray and unfold the multi-purpose tray extension, as shown.

Media and tray 422. Menu overview and basic setupEnvelopePrinting successfully on envelopes depends upon the quality of the envelopes. To print an envelope, place it as shown in the following figure.If envelopes are printed out with wrinkles, crease, or black bold lines, open the rear cover and pull down the pressure lever on the right side about 90 degrees and try printing again. Keep the rear cover opened during printing. • When selecting envelopes, consider the following factors:-Weight: should not exceed 90 g/m2 otherwise; jams may occur.-Construction: should lie flat with less than 6 mm curl and should not contain air.-Condition: should not be wrinkled, nicked, nor damaged.-Temperature: should resist the heat and pressure of the machine during operation.• Use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp and well-creased folds.• Do not use stamped envelopes.• Do not use envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated lining, self-adhesive seals, or other synthetic materials.• Do not use damaged or poorly made envelopes.1Pressure lever1
Media and tray 432. Menu overview and basic setup• Be sure the seam at both ends of the envelope extends all the way to the corner of the envelope.1 Acceptable2 Unacceptable• Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use adhesives compatible with the machine’s fusing temperature for 0.1 second (about 170°C (338 °F)). The extra flaps and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams, and may even damage the fuser.• For the best print quality, position margins no closer than 15 mm from the edges of the envelope.• Avoid printing over the area where the envelope’s seams meet.TransparencyTo avoid damaging the machine, use only transparencies designed for use in laser printers.• Must withstand the machine’s fusing temperature.• Place them on a flat surface after removing them from the machine.• Do not leave unused transparencies in the paper tray for long. Dust and dirt may accumulate on them, resulting in spotty printing.• To avoid smudging caused by fingerprints, handle them carefully.

Check your machine’s specifications to view the fusing temperature (about 170°C (338°F)).-Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.-Curl: Must lie flat with no more than 13 mm of curl in any direction.

Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to machine components.• Do not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the machine.• Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are wrinkled, bubbled, or otherwise damaged.Card stock/ Custom-sized paper• In the software application, set margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches) away from the edges of the material.
