5—Add Paper
*
u
Before adding paper, remove the paper cassette all the way from the printer.
u
Read the paper manufacturer’s instructions concerning handling of the paper.
1.
Push the bottom plate until it locks.
2.
Set the paper in the cassette. The side of the
paper that faces downward in the cassette is
printed on. The paper size must match the
cassette size. Tap the edges of the paper to
align them neatly.
Don’t put in more paper than the limit indi-
cated on the cassette. (The cassette should
hold approximately 250 sheets of paper with
a 75 g/m
2
[20 lb./ream] basis weight, 0.1
mm thickness.)
2.
Set the clips at the two corners as shown
right.
*
Some types of paper (such as thick
paper) may be hard to place in the
cassette using this method. If this is
the case, the process is facilitated by
inserting the paper from the back,
as shown in the figure on the right.
3.
Insert the paper cassette into the printer cas-
sette slot. Push it straight as far as it will go.
