Printing on Paper in a Paper Tray

Follow the procedure below to print on plain paper.

Important

  • You can load 100 sheets in the optional bypass tray unit.

  • You can load [Plain] and [Inkjet Plain Paper] in tray 2.

  • Curled paper may jam. Straighten any curls before loading.

  • Load paper with the print side face down in the paper trays.

  • Load paper with the print side face up into the bypass tray.

  • Printing on Inkjet OHP Transparencies

    • Printed inkjet transparencies take some time to dry. We recommend that you remove a printed inkjet transparency from the output tray before the next inkjet transparency is delivered.

    • The print delivery time interval can be set longer to avoid printed inkjet transparency from sticking together due to print wetness.

    • When you print on inkjet OHP transparencies, [Dithering:] is automatically set to [Text]. If printing with this setting causes problems such as print degradation, select [User settings] in the [Print Quality] area on the [Setup] tab, click [Change...] to display the [User settings] dialog box, set [Dithering:] to [Photographic], and then print.

  • Printing on Envelopes

    • Before loading envelopes, make sure their edges are sharply creased by rubbing them with a pen or similar object.

    • Squeeze the paper guide release, and then slide the paper guides into position according to the envelope size.
