Loading the multipurpose feeder
You can use the multipurpose feeder one of two ways:
• Paper tray—As a paper tray, you can load paper
or specialty media in the feeder with the intention
of leaving the media in the feeder.
• Manual bypass feeder—As a manual bypass
feeder, you can send a print job to the feeder
while specifying the type and size of media from
your computer. The printer then prompts you to
load the appropriate print media before it prints.
To load the multipurpose feeder:
1 Open the
multipurpose feeder.
2 Squeeze the paper
guide lever and slide
the guide all the way
toward the front of
the printer.
3 Flex the sheets back
and forth to loosen
them, and then fan
them. Do not fold or
crease the print
media. Straighten the
edges of the stack on
a level surface.
4 Arrange the stack of
paper or specialty media correctly for the size,
type, and print method you are using.
5 Place the paper or
specialty media, print
side up, along the left
side of the
multipurpose feeder,
and then push it in as
far as it will easily go.
Do not force the
media.
Note: Do not
exceed the maximum stack height.
Overfilling the feeder may cause jams.
