PRINTING ON SPECIAL PRINT MATERIALS

The machine can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as

postcards, note cards, and envelopes. Especially, it is useful for single page

printing on letterhead or colored paper.

Feeding the print material manually

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

To prevent paper jams, do not add paper when there is still paper in

the tray. This also applies to other types of print media.

Print media should be loaded face up with the side you want to print,

and the top edge going into the tray first. Place print materials in the

center of the tray.

Always load only the specified print media to avoid paper jams and

print quality problems. (See "Selecting print media" on page 31.)

Flatten any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading

them into the tray.

ADJUSTING THE OUTPUT SUPPORT

you need to pull it out appropriately depending on the paper size.

type using the printer driver. Follow these steps to make your changes

top left side.

Labels: Print side up and top short edge entering the machine

first.

Preprinted paper: Design side up with the top edge toward the

machine.

Card stock: Print side up and the short edge entering the

machine first.

Previously printed paper: Previously printed side down with

an uncurled edge toward the machine.

If you want to use an label, set the paper type to Label.

If you are printing multiple pages, load the next sheet after first
page prints out, and press the

Stop

button. Repeat this

step for every page to be printed.

The settings you change remain in effect only while you are

using the current application.

Output support

If the output support is incorrectly adjusted, printed pages may be

mis-aligned or fall.

If you continuously print many pages, the surface of the output tray

may become hot. Be careful not to touch the surface, and

especially keep children away from the surface.

The following procedure is for Windows XP. For other Windows OS,

refer to the corresponding Windows User's Guide or online help.
