Loading Paper
Single Sheets
- Open the output tray and its extension.
- Fan the stack of paper and place it against the right edge guide. Don't push the paper in.
- Press in the side of the left edge guide and slide it against the paper, but not too tightly.
Follow these guidelines when loading paper:
- Don't load paper above the arrow on the left edge guide. Also make sure the paper is under the tabs on the left and right edge guides.
- Load the printable side face up. It's usually whiter or brighter than the other side.
- Always load the short edge first, even when printing in landscape mode.
- Load letterhead or preprinted paper into the printer top edge first.
- If you experience paper feeding problems, try loading fewer sheets.
Envelopes
- Open the output tray and its extension.
- Load up to 10 envelopes at a time, flap edge left, printable side up, against the right edge of the sheet feeder.
- Slide the left edge guide against the envelopes (but not too tightly). Make sure the envelopes are under the tabs on the left and right edge guides.
Note: For best results, press each envelope flat before loading, or load one envelope at a time.
Select the following settings when printing on envelopes:
- Plain paper as the Type or Media Type setting
- The correct envelope size as the Size (Windows) or Paper Size (Macintosh) setting
- Landscape as the Orientation setting
For instructions on selecting these settings, see: Printing With Windows, Printing With Macintosh OS X, or Printing with Macintosh OS 8.6 to 9.x
