Quick Reference

Loading paper or other print media

To help prevent jams:

Flex all stacks of print media back and forth to loosen them, and 
then fan them before loading. Do not fold or crease the print 
media. Straighten the edges of the stack on a level surface.

Do not exceed the maximum stack height.

Never mix media types within a tray.

Loading the 250-sheet or 550-sheet tray

  1

Remove the tray.

Note:

If you are going to load legal or folio size paper, you 
have to extend the length of the paper tray. See 
”Extending the tray for legal or folio size paper” for 
instructions.

  2

Prepare a stack of paper for loading by flexing or fanning it back 
and forth. Straighten the edges on a level surface.

  3

Load the paper in the tray with the print side facing down.

Note:

Load letterhead paper with the design side facing 
down. The top edge of the sheet with the logo should 
be placed at the front of the tray.

Make sure the paper is below the maximum fill lines on the side 
guides. Overloading may cause jams.

  4

Slide the two side guides and the back guide until they fit snugly 
against the stack of paper.

  5

Insert the tray.

Extending the tray for legal or folio size paper

  1

Press down on the pressure point at the back of the tray.

  2

Expand the tray until the extender locks into place.

Using the manual feeder

The manual feeder can only feed one sheet of print media at a time.

  1

Send your print job to the printer (refer to the User’s Reference 
on the publications CD for help).

The printer’s Load Paper

 light blinks when it is ready for the 

print media to be loaded.

  2

Place a sheet of the selected print media, print side facing up, at 
the center of the manual feeder, but only to the point where it’s 
leading edge can contact the paper guides.

  3

Adjust the paper guides to the print media’s width.

  4

Hold both sides of the print media close to the manual feeder and 
push it into the printer until it automatically engages.

There is a brief pause between the time the printer engages the 
print media and when it feeds into the printer.

Warning:

Do not force the print media into the feeder. Forcing the 
media causes jams.

Insert envelopes with the flap side face down and with the stamp 
area as shown.

Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print 
side. Oils from your fingers that are deposited on the 
transparency can affect print quality.

Load letterhead faceup, with the top of the sheet first.

Using the rear exit

The single-sheet rear exit provides a straight-through paper path to 
help reduce curling and potential jams. This is especially useful for 
special media, such as transparencies, envelopes, labels, card stock, 
or index cards.

When the rear exit door is open, all print media comes out the rear exit. 
When closed, all media is sent to the output bin on top of the printer.

Printing on specialty media

Follow these instructions to print on media such as transparencies, 
card stock, labels, or envelopes. The type of print media you want to 
use determines which tray or feeder it should be fed from.

  1

Loading paper or other print media
