Printing on custom-sized print media or cardstock
Postcards, 3-by-5-inch (index) cards, and other custom-sized print media can be printed from
tray 1. The minimum size is 76 by 127 mm (3 by 5 inches) and the maximum size is 216 by 356
mm (8.5 by 14 inches).
●
Always insert the short edge first into tray 1. To print in landscape mode, make this selection
through your program. Inserting paper long edge first might cause a paper jam.
●
In your program, set margins at least 6.4 mm (.25 inches) away from the edges of the print
media.
