Loading Paper and Envelopes in the
Rear Paper Feed Slot
You can
print on envelopes or paper in a variety of types and sizes in the
rear paper feed slot.
Flip the feeder guard forward and pull up the paper
support and extension.
Slide the edge guides outward.
If you are inserting a stack of paper, fan the sheets and
tap the stack on a flat surface to even the edges.
Note: You can
load one sheet of binder paper with holes on one of the long edges
as shown. Do not select automatic 2-sided printing for this type of
paper.
Do one of the following:
Insert paper,
glossy or printable side up and short edge first, in the center of
the slot.
Caution:
To prevent paper feeding problems, make
sure you do not load paper above the arrow marks inside the edge
guides.
Load
envelopes short edge first, with the flap facing down and the flap
edge to the left, in the center of the slot.
Slide the edge guides against the paper or envelope, but
not too tightly.
Extend the output tray and flip open the paper
stopper.
Select the size and type of paper you loaded on the
product LCD screen.
Always follow
these paper loading guidelines:
Load only the
recommended number of sheets.
Load paper short
edge first, no matter which way your document faces.
Load the
printable side faceup.
Load letterhead
or pre-printed paper top edge first.
Do not load paper
above the arrow mark inside the edge guides.
If you have
trouble loading a stack of envelopes, press each envelope flat
before loading it or load one envelope at a time.
If print quality
declines when printing multiple envelopes, try loading one envelope
at a time.
Do not load
envelopes that are curled, folded, or too thin.
Check the paper
package for any additional loading instructions.
