Loading paper in the
multi-purpose tray (MP tray) 2
You can load up to 3 envelopes or special
print media in the MP tray or up to 50 sheets
of plain paper. Use this tray to print or copy on
thick paper, bond paper, envelopes, labels or
transparencies.
Printing on thick paper, bond paper,
envelopes, labels and transparencies 2
Before loading, press the corners and sides
of the envelopes to make them as flat as
possible.
When the back output tray is pulled down, the
machine has a straight paper path from the
MP tray through to the back of the machine.
Use this paper feed and output method when
you want to print on thick paper, bond paper,
envelopes, labels or transparencies.
IMPORTANT
Remove each printed sheet or envelope
immediately to prevent a paper jam.
a Open the back cover (back output tray).
b Open the MP tray and lower it gently.
c Pull out the MP tray support (1) and
unfold the flap (2).
d While pressing the paper side guide
release lever, slide the paper guides to
fit the width of the paper that you are
going to use.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the paper guides touch the
sides of the paper so it will feed properly.
e Put the envelopes (up to 3), thick paper,
labels or transparencies in the MP tray
with the top edge first and the print side
face up. Make sure that the paper stays
under the maximum paper mark (b).
