Changing the Paper Size in Paper Trays

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

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

Important

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

  • 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.

  • 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 misfeed.

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

Note

  • After sliding the paper tray in, make sure that the paper size is changed correctly on the copier initial screen. To display the copier initial screen, press the [Home] key, and then press the [Copier] icon.

  • You can load envelopes into the paper trays. When loading envelopes, place them in the correct orientation. For details, see Envelopes.
