Loading standard size paper

Important

  • Shuffle paper before loading the stack onto the tray, so multiple sheets are not fed in together.

  • Set the size and direction of the loaded paper on the control panel or with the printer driver. 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.

  • The bypass tray does not support duplex printing.

  • When setting long paper to the bypass tray, support it with your hand to ensure it is fed properly.

  • Paper feeding process or image quality varies depending on the paper thickness or width.

  • Check the print in advance using the same type of paper.
