Precautions when Loading Paper
IMPORTANT
Be sure to align the paper guides with the width of the
paper.
• If the paper guides are too loose or too tight, this may result in
misfeeds or paper jams.
• Printouts may be askew depending on the printing environment.
Properly load paper to reduce the symptom.
When using paper that has been poorly cut
If you use paper that has been poorly cut, multiple sheets of paper
may be fed at once. In this case, fan the paper thoroughly, and then
align the edges of the stack properly on a hard, flat surface.
Do not exceed the load limit mark when loading paper.
Ensure that the paper stack does not exceed the line of the load
limit mark. If the paper stack exceeds the load limit mark lines, this
may result in misfeeds.
When printing on envelopes
Load envelopes with the front side (non-glued side) facing up. You
cannot print on the reverse side of envelopes.
Also, be sure to close the flap before loading envelopes.
