Loading the Manual Feeder

The manual feeder is located at the front of your printer and can only feed one sheet of print media at a time. You can

use the manual feeder to make quick runs of paper types or sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray.

To load the manual feeder:

1. Place a sheet of the selected print media, print side facing up, at the center of the manual feeder, but only to the

point where its leading edge can contact the paper guides. Otherwise, the printer engages the print media too soon

and likely skews the print job.

2. Adjust the paper guides to the print media's width.

3. Hold both sides of the print media close to the manual feeder, and push it into the printer until it automatically

engages.

There is a brief pause between the time the printer engages the print media and when it feeds into the printer.

Insert envelopes with the flap side facing down and with the stamp area as shown.

Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Oil from your fingers that is deposited on the

transparency can affect print quality.

NOTICE:

Do not force the print media into the feeder. Forcing the media causes jams.
