Always follow
these paper loading guidelines:
- Load only the recommended number of sheets or envelopes.
- Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading. Do not fan or curl photo paper. Doing so may damage the printable side.
- Fan and align the edges of envelopes, and flatten stacks before loading.
- If paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in the opposite direction before loading. Printing on curled paper may cause paper jams and smeared printouts.
- Do not load different types of paper in the cassette.
- Load paper short edge first and printable side facedown.
- Load envelopes printable side facedown and flap edge left.
- Make sure the paper is under the tabs on 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.
- Do not load an envelope that is curled, folded, or too thin, or that has a plastic window.
- If print quality declines when printing multiple envelopes, try loading one envelope at a time.
- Check the paper package for any additional loading instructions.
