Paper Feed Tray Set-Up
Paper Feed Tray

Setting up the Paper Feed Tray
1. Open the Paper Feed Tray
Adding or Replacing Paper

If you want to add paper or use paper of a different size during printing, lower the Paper Feed Tray so that you can load the paper easily. To lower the Paper Feed Tray, hold down the Feed Tray Down button.
Important! Do not mix different paper sizes in the Paper Feed Tray. 2. Adjust the Feed Tray Paper Guides to the width of the paper and the load printing paper. To prevent paper jams and misfeeds, follow the directions below:
When using standard paper, set the Paper Feed Pressure Adjustment Lever
Important! Do not mix printing paper of different sizes.
3. Set the Paper feed pressure. (NORMAL) Standard paper (CARD) Thick paper such as drawing paper or smooth paper
to: (NORMAL). When using thick paper or smooth paper, set the Paper Feed Pressure Adjustment Lever to (CARD). Slide the Feed Tray Paper Guides and Receiving Tray Paper Guides to fit the paper size. Position the Paper Receiving Tray to fit the paper length. Use flat printing paper that is free of folds. If curled paper is unavoidable, place the printing paper so that the curl faces down. Printing paper tends to stick to the Drum surface if the top margin is too narrow on the original or if the upper portion of the original uses a large amount of ink. To solve this problem, lower the print position to provide a wider top margin or reverse the top and bottom of the original. Then restart printing from the beginning.
