Precautions for Loading Paper
• When loading paper, take care not to trap or injure your fingers.
• Do not stack paper over the limit mark.
Jams and misfeeds can occur when printing on thick glossy sheets. To prevent such problems, be sure to
fan glossy sheets thoroughly before loading them.
When loading paper, set the paper direction according to its grain, as shown in the following diagram:

• Even if paper is loaded as described above, normal operations and print quality might still not be
possible, depending on the paper type.
• When loading 52.3 g/m

the wide LCT or the multi bypass tray (Tray A), always use long grain paper.
• Prints might be noticeably curled. Flatten out prints if they are creased or curled. For details about
settings for flattening out curled paper, see "Adjustment Settings for Operators", Paper Settings.
