Paper Usage Guidelines
The printer trays accommodate most sizes and types of paper, transparencies, or other
specialty media. Follow these guidelines when loading paper and media in the trays:
■
Envelopes and transparencies can be printed from Tray 1 (MPT) only.
■
Fan paper, transparencies, or other specialty media before loading in the paper tray.
■
Do not print on label stock once a label has been removed from a sheet.
■
Use only paper envelopes. Do not use envelopes with windows, metal clasps, or adhesives
with release strips.
■
All envelopes should be printed single-sided only.
■
Some wrinkling and embossing may occur when printing envelopes.
■
Do not overload the paper trays. Do not load paper above the fill line on the inside of the
paper guide.
■
Adjust the paper guides to fit the paper size. For Trays 2–3, the paper guides click into
place when they are adjusted correctly.
■
If excessive jams occur, use paper or other media from a new package.
