Loading Paper into Paper Trays

Every paper tray is loaded in the same way.

In the following example procedure, paper is loaded into tray 2.

Important

  • Region A icon(mainly Europe and Asia)
    Tray 1 can hold A4Portrait paper only. If you want to print on A5Portrait, B5 JISPortrait, or 81/2 × 11Portrait from tray 1, contact your service representative.

  • Region B icon(mainly North America)
    Tray 1 can hold 81/2 × 11Portrait paper only. If you want to print on A4Portrait, A5Portrait, or B5 JISPortrait from tray 1, contact your service representative.

  • 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 a low number of sheets, be sure not to squeeze the side fences in too tightly. If the side fences are squeezed too tightly against the paper, the edges may crease, thin paper may wrinkle, or the paper may be misfed.
