Changing the Paper Size in Trays 1 - 4

This section describes how to change the paper size in trays 1 hyphen 4.

The paper size setting is changed in the same way for each paper tray.

In the following example procedure, the paper size setting for tray 2 is changed.

Important

  • If a paper tray is pushed vigorously when putting it back into place, the position of the tray's side fences may slip out of place.

  • Check the paper edges are aligned at the right side.

  • When loading small quantities of paper, be careful not to squeeze the side fences in too tightly, as the paper will not feed properly.

1Check that paper in the paper tray is not being used, and then pull the tray carefully out until it stops.
