Load paper into the cut paper tray with the print side down.
Load paper into the bypass tray with the print side up.
You must manually specify the size of custom size paper when loading it on the bypass tray.
If multiple-sheet jams occur, load the paper sheet by sheet.
Do not use paper designed for inkjet printers, as these may stick to the fusing unit and cause a misfeed.
If you load paper of the same size in the same orientation in two or more trays, the machine automatically shifts to the other tray - except the bypass tray - when the first tray in use runs out of paper. This function is called "Auto Tray Switching". (However, if one tray has recycled or special paper, the settings of the other trays must be the same for Auto Tray Switching to work.) This saves interrupting a copy run to replenish paper when making a large number of copies. See "Copier / Document Server Features", and "Tray Paper Settings", General Settings Guide.
