Loading Special Paper Types
Certain paper types (such as tabs, drilled stock, transparencies, etc...) require that they be loaded in a
certain way in order to achieve the correct output.
Additionally, the types of finishing devices you may have installed impacts the way in which some stock
types must be loaded to achieve correct output. For more information, see Loading Special Stock For
Proper Finishing Output.
For general guidelines for proper paper usage, see Recommendations for Paper Usage.
Definition of Leading Edge
Leading edge is the left side of the paper as you look down on it in the tray. Leading edge means that
this is the edge of the paper that first enters the print engine.
Definition of Trailing Edge
Trailing edge is the edge opposite the leading edge. It is on the right side and is the last edge of the
paper to go into the print engine. When the leading edge is the short edge of the paper, the paper is
loaded SEF (short edge feed). When the leading edge is the long edge of the paper, the paper is loaded
LEF (long edge feed).
Loading Special Stock for Proper Finishing Output
Depending on the finishing devices that are present on your system, special paper stock must be loaded
in certain ways to achieve correct output. To ensure correct output and to avoid manual collation, load
as indicated by the labels on each paper tray and follow the guidelines below.
If you are using a 2-Tray Sheet Feed Module, follow the guidelines for loading stocks in trays 3 and 4.
Note
For information about loading tabbed stock in the Sheet Feed Module, see Using the Feed Module Tab
Guides. You need to have the Tabs Guide installed in the feed tray that contains the tabbed stock.
Note
As an aid to you, there are illustration decals on each paper tray which will help you to load stock correctly.
Note
For best results and most efficient operation, load special stocks LEF in the paper trays. Loading special
stocks SEF may result in pages delivered with incorrect rotation and face-up or face-down delivery.
Special programming may be required to correct.
