• Do not use media designed for use in color laser printers 

and photocopiers 

• Labels should cover entire carrier sheet.
• Carrier sheet or adhesive must not be exposed to any 

part of the printer.

Installing paper

NOTE:  If you are topping up the paper in a paper tray, it is 

recommended that you remove the remaining paper from the 

tray first then add the new paper stock followed by the paper 

you removed. This ensures that the oldest paper is used first 

to help prevent paper jams.

1.

Remove the paper tray from the bottom of the printer 

and place plain paper in the tray, keeping the level of the 

paper in the tray below the guide arrowheads shown on 

the paper guides (1)

    

Fig1_17.jpg

  

NOTE:  Load letterhead paper face down and top edge 

towards the front of the paper tray.
NOTE:  If you are installing legal size paper, open out the 

paper tray extender located at the rear of the paper tray.
