Use the multi bypass tray (Tray A) to use transparencies, translucent paper, and paper that cannot be loaded in the paper trays.
The maximum number of sheets you can load at the same time depends on paper type. Do not stack paper over the limit mark. For the maximum number of sheets you can load, see Recommended Paper Sizes and Types.
Check the paper edges are aligned at the left 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, the paper may misfeed, or if it weighs between 52.3–63.0 g/m2 (14.0–16.9 lb. Bond), it may wrinkle.
Set the side fences to the paper size, and then square the paper and load it print side up.
Do not stack paper over the limit mark.
