Loading Paper
Paper Size and Type Settings
❏ You can load commercially available thin paper that cannot be loaded in
paper cassette 1 or paper cassette 2, or pre-punched paper such as loose
leaf paper. However, it may not be fed depending on the hardness and
transparency of the paper.
❏ You can load thick paper such as poster board (up to 1.3 mm thick).
❏ Install the paper feed unit before loading paper.
❏ Load paper when a message is displayed on the control panel telling you
to load paper.
❏ You can load multiple sheets of small size photo paper.
❏ If you load the same paper in paper cassette 1 and paper cassette 2 and
select Cassette 1→2 as the paper source, the printer automatically feeds
paper from paper cassette 2 when paper runs out in paper cassette 1.
We recommend loading A4 size plain paper as this is used frequently.
