Loading legal size paper

This section explains how to load Legal size paper into the printer.

The same procedure applies to A4 paper (297 mm) or larger.

Important

  • Do not move the side paper guides forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.

  • Do not move the end paper guide forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.

  • When inserting the tray, make sure it is not slanted. Inserting it at a slant can damage the printer.

  • Fan the paper thoroughly before loading it in the paper tray.

Slide the guides inward, until they are flush against the paper's sides.

Make sure the paper is not stacked higher than the projection on the side paper guides.

8Check there are no gaps between the paper and the paper guides; both side and end paper guides.

If there is a gap between the paper and the end paper guide, as in the example below, the paper might not feed in correctly.

To avoid paper jams, make sure the tray is securely inserted.

Note

  • The remaining paper indicator on the left front side of the paper tray shows approximately how much paper is remaining.
