Loading Paper in the Bypass Tray

This describes how to load standard size paper into the bypass tray.

Setting the size and direction of loaded paper is available using the printer driver or control panel. Make sure the settings do not conflict. Otherwise, the paper may jam or the print quality may be affected.
Load paper with the print side down and in the short-edge feed direction.
Shuffle paper before loading the stack onto the tray, so multiple sheets are not fed in together.
Load paper only when "Ready" is displayed on the control panel.

Hold the middle part of the bypass tray and pull it toward you.

Open the bypass tray.

If you load legal or longer size paper, pull out the bypass tray extension.

Slide the paper guide both sides outward, and then load paper print side down, until it stops.

Adjust the paper guide both sides to fit the paper width.

There are paper limit marks on the side of the paper guide. The maximum paper capacity that can be loaded in the tray is up to the upper line with Plain Paper 1, Plain Paper 2 (91 - 105 g/m²), Thick Paper 1 (106 - 160 g/m²), or Thin Paper (66 - 74 g/m²), and up to the lower line with Thick Paper 2 (161 - 200 g/m²) or Envelope.
