postcards from being fed properly.
Loading Paper
This section explains how to load paper in the
bypass tray or trays 1 - 4.
Loading Paper in the Bypass
Tray
Important
• Load paper when the power is switched on.
• Do not load paper of different types simultaneously.
• Do not remove or add paper to the bypass tray while
printing from the bypass tray. Doing so can cause paper
jams.
• Do not place any objects other than paper on the
bypass tray. Do not push down the tray or apply an
excessive force to the tray.
1. Pull the bypass tray open.
2. When loading long paper, extend the
extension tray until it stops (until it clicks into
place). If the tray is not long enough, extend
it all the way.
