Long paper

When loading long paper, load a single sheet in the paper tray. Set the Paper Size Auto Detect setting to Off and select User-Defined as the paper size.

If paper falls from the face-down tray, prepare a box or similar receptacle to make sure the paper does not touch the floor.
Do not touch the paper as it is being ejected. This could injure your hand or cause print quality to decline.
When loading long paper, be careful not to cut your hands on the edges of the paper while holding it.
