Additional cautions

  • Print speed is slightly slower than when using plain paper.

  • When loading paper in the printer paper trays or the paper feed units, load at least 20 sheets. Also, adjust the side guide so that it lightly touches the paper.

  • Curled paper: If the paper is curled, flatten the paper before loading it.

  • If you are using thick paper with a smooth surface, paper jams or multiple feeding can occur. Fan the paper before loading it. If a paper jam or multiple feeding occurs even after you have fanned the paper, set the paper one sheet at a time.
