Handling sheets for paper feed slots
Note
•
You can adjust the strength of vacuum holding paper against the Platen when the Release Lever
is up. If it is difcult to load paper, press the ▲ or ▼ button on the Control Panel to adjust the
strength. Increase the vacuum by pressing the ▲ button or decrease it with the ▼ button. Three
levels are available.
However, even if you increase the vacuum, it may not be sufcient to hold some types of paper
against the Platen well. In this case, use your hand to load the paper.
•
A sheet is held in place by vacuuming through holes on the Platen. Although the vacuuming may
produce a noise when paper is loaded in some positions, it does not indicate a problem. If the noise
is distracting, try moving the paper over slightly to the left or right (up to 1 mm [0.039 in]) while
keeping it parallel to the Paper Alignment Line.
•
The vacuum remains on for about 30 seconds during loading. If you cannot nish loading a sheet
during this time, pull the sheet away and reinsert it to start the vacuum suction again.
3.
Lower the Release Lever and close the Top Cover.
The printer now starts feeding the paper.
After the paper is advanced, the printer automatically goes online and starts printing.
If no print job has been received from the computer beforehand, the printer automatically shows
a menu for selection of the paper type on the Display Screen.
In this case, select the type of paper. (→P.213)
Note
•
When using the Output Stacker, if you will print on large, stiff sheets, we recommend adjusting the
Output Stacker into the lowest position to prevent printed sheets from being bent (→P.220)
