Troubleshooting
You cannot load paper other than A4, Letter, or B5-sized plain paper in the
Front Tray. When using any other type of paper, load it in the Rear Tray.
Make sure that the proper paper source is selected. If not, change the paper
source using the Paper Feed Switch or the printer driver.
For details, see "Changing the Paper Source" on page 12.
Note
When printing from your computer, if a setting other than Paper Feed Switch is
selected for Paper Source in the printer driver, the printer driver settings take
precedence when printing.
For details on paper source selection using the printer driver, refer to the PC
Printing Guide on-screen manual.
Make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the load limit.
However, proper feeding of paper may not be possible at this maximum capacity
depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or
low temperature and humidity).
In such cases, reduce the sheets of paper you load at a time to around half.
For details on loading paper, see "Loading Paper" on page 13.
Make sure that there are no foreign objects in the Rear Tray or Front Tray.
When printing on envelopes, see "Loading Envelopes" on page 18, and
prepare the envelopes before printing.
Once you have prepared the envelopes, load them in the machine in portrait
orientation. If the envelopes are placed in landscape orientation, they will not
feed properly.
If the Paper Support is pulled out, retract it.
If the Rear Cover is not reattached properly after it has been removed, it can
cause paper jams. Press firmly on the Rear Cover until it is locked into place in
the rear of the machine.
See "Main Components" in the User's Guide on-screen manual.
Open the Front Tray.
When the paper source setting is inconsistent between an application program
and the printer driver, the application software setting takes precedence.
Change the application software setting corresponding to the printer driver
setting, or click the Print Options on the Page Setup sheet in the printer driver
and select Disable the paper source setting of the application software on
the Print Options screen.
For the print option setting, refer to the PC Printing Guide on-screen manual.
