Feeder trays
This chapter explains how to load paper in the feeder trays and
indicate the paper weight.
It is important to load paper properly in the trays to prevent jams
and loss of production time. The following guidelines will help
ensure maximum efficiency of your printer operation.
NOTE: When loading paper in the printer, you must use the
procedure to set trays at the printer controller:
•
If you are using the command line interface (CLI), refer to the
Guide to Configuring and Managing the System.
•
If you are using the graphical user interface (GUI), refer to the
online help.
When you are loading the paper, follow these guidelines to
prevent paper jams:
•
Remove damaged sheets.
•
Load the paper with the package wrapper seam side up.
•
Make sure that the direction of the curl is consistent.
•
Avoid fanning the paper unless the stock is predrilled.
•
Do not load the paper above the MAX line on the Edge
Guide.
•
Place any paper left in the bottom of the tray on top of the
new paper stack.
•
When loading predrilled paper, fan the paper and remove
loose paper plugs.
•
Load all media of the same size in the same orientation (SEF
or LEF).
