Guidelines for loading paper

1-2
• You can open and load any tray not currently in use without
interrupting printing.
• If you try to open a tray currently in use, the feeding switches
to a backup tray if one is available. If a backup tray is not
available, the printer stops.
• The printer does not feed all the paper out of a tray. A stack of
approximately 1/4 inch / 6 mm remains in the tray.
It is important to load paper properly in the feeder trays to
prevent jams and loss of production time. The following
guidelines will help ensure maximum efficiency of your printer's
operation.
When you are loading the paper, follow these guidelines to
prevent pager 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 length
guide.
• Place any paper left in the bottom of the tray on top of the
new paper stack.
• For trays 3, 4, 5 and 6, load paper with curl side up. If you do
not detect paper curl, load paper with the wrapper seam side
down.
Additional guidelines for loading special stocks:
• When loading predrilled paper, fan the paper and remove
loose paper plugs.
• Load transparencies into trays 1 and 2 only.
• When loading tab stock, remove deformed, bent, or
damaged stock.
