Preparing to Copy
Loading Paper
Load paper in the four cassettes, the MP tray and/or the optional side feeder. For details on the

If the paper is curled or folded, straighten it before loading. Paper that is curled or folded may cause
paper jams.
IMPORTANT: If you copy onto used paper (paper already used for copying), do not use paper that
is stapled or clipped together. This may damage the copier or cause poor image quality.
If ejected copies are not flat or are stacked unevenly,
turn the paper in the cassette over and reload it.
Avoid exposing opened paper to high temperatures
and high humidity as dampness may cause copying
problems. Seal any remaining paper after loading the
MP tray or a cassette in its original package. If the
copier will not be used for a prolonged period, protect
all paper from humidity by removing from the cassettes
and sealing in the original package.
Loading Paper in Cassettes 1 and 2
Cassettes 1 and 2 support standard and recycled paper. Up to 1,500 sheets of standard paper
(80 g/m²) may be loaded in each cassette.
The cassettes support 11 × 8
IMPORTANT: Specify the type of paper loaded in the cassettes. Refer to Specifying the Paper Type
on page 2-9 for details.

Pull the cassette out toward you until it stops.

Holding the paper on both sides, bend the
edges downward so that the middle curves
upward.
Holding your thumbs in place toward the
center, unbend the paper so that the
bottom sheet is back at its original position.
Your thumbs should prevent the stack from
straightening out, forming a hill-like shape.
Fluff the paper, raising one hand and
lowering the other, then alternating. The
individual sheets are slightly lifted,
separated from each other.
Align the sheets by tapping the stack on a flat surface.
