Attaching the Paper Feed Unit

CAUTION

  • The printer weights approximately 50 kg (110 lb.). When moving the printer, use the inset grips on both sides, and lift slowly. The printer will break or cause injury if dropped.

  • Lifting the paper feed unit carelessly or dropping it may cause injury.

  • To prevent the machine toppling and causing injury, place it on stable, strong, and level table.

Important

  • Up to three paper feed units can be attached to the printer.

  • When three paper feed units are installed, they are detected as "Tray 2", "Tray 3", and "Tray 4", starting from the upper unit.

  • The printer should always be lifted by at least four people.

  • Before using the new paper feed unit, you must make settings in the printer driver.
