Loading sheet media
Which edge first?
You can load a sheet in either portrait or landscape orientation. Unless using the
Rotate option (see page 5-15, Rotating an Image), load the sheet in the same
orientation as you have specified in your software. If printing a PostScript file,
always load the sheet with the short edge first, even if the width of your image is
greater than its length.
Which side up?
As you load the sheet, it is the side facing down on which the printer prints. With
most media types, the two sides are different and so it is important to load the sheet
correctly.
Loading a sheet
1 You cannot load sheet media if roll media is loaded. If roll media is loaded refer to
3-31, Removing a Roll from the Printer.
2 Make sure the media lever is in the raised position and the roll cover is closed.
(short edge first)
always use this orientation for PostScript files
