Fanning the Paper

Important

  • If you load coated paper, label paper, OHP transparencies, or thick paper of 150.1–300.0 g/m2 (55.1 lb. Cover–165.0 lb. Index) in the wide LCT, it is important that you fan the sheets thoroughly. Misfeeds may occur if paper is not fanned thoroughly.

1Loosen the stack by riffling the sheets.

2Holding its shorter ends, flex the stack back and forth to create space between the sheets. Repeat this several times.
