Selecting paper
Proper paper loading helps prevent jams and ensure trouble-free printing.
To help avoid jams or poor print quality:
Always
use new, undamaged paper.
Before loading paper, know the recommended print side of the paper you are using. This information is
usually indicated on the paper package.
Do not
use paper that you have cut or trimmed yourself.
Do not
mix print media sizes, weights, or types in the same source; mixing results in jams.
Do not
use coated papers.
Do not
forget to change the Paper Size setting when you use a source that does not support auto size
sensing.
Do not
remove trays while a job is printing or
Busy
is displayed on the operator panel.
Make sure the Paper Type, Paper Texture, and Paper Weight settings are correct. (See
Paper Menu
for
detailed information about these settings.)
Make sure the paper is properly loaded in the source.
Flex paper back and forth. Do not fold or crease the paper. Straighten the edges on a level surface.
