Loading paper longer than A4
This section explains how to load paper longer than A4 (297 mm) into the printer.
Make sure paper is not stacked above the limit mark inside the tray. Misfeeds might occur.
After loading paper in the tray, specify the paper type and size using the control panel to avoid printing problems. This printer does not detect the paper size automatically.
Do not mix different types of paper in the same paper tray.
Do not move the side paper guides forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.
Do not move the end paper guide forcefully. Doing so can damage the tray.
When inserting the tray, make sure it is not slanted. Inserting it at a slant can damage the printer.
Remove the tray 1 rear cover by pushing its center.
Pull out tray 1 carefully with both hands.
Place the tray on a flat surface.
Release the extender locks on both sides of the tray, and then pull out the extender until it clicks.
Lock the extender in the extended position.
Pinch the clip on the side paper guide, and then slide it to match the standard size.
Pinch the end paper guide and slide it inward to match the paper size.
Load the new paper stack print side down.
Make sure paper is not stacked higher than the upper limit marked inside the tray.
Slide the guides inward until they are flush against the paper's sides.
Make sure the paper is not stacked higher than the projection on the side paper guides.
Check there are no gaps between the paper and the paper guides; both side and end paper guides.
If there is a gap between the paper and the end paper guide, as in the example below, the paper might not feed in correctly.
Carefully push Tray 1 straight into the printer.
To avoid paper jams, make sure the tray is securely inserted.
To reinsert the extender, you might have to push it with moderate force.
The remaining paper indicator on the left front side of the paper tray shows approximately how much paper is remaining.
