Loading paper in the upper and lower trays
Note
The Lower Paper Tray Assembly accepts paper media only; it
should not be used for printing transparencies or label stock.
1.
Prior to loading paper in a tray, fan the paper to release sheets that
are stuck together.
2.
Load up to 250 sheets of paper in the media tray. A label on the
inside of the paper tray provides a Þll line to indicate the trayÕs
maximum capacity.
Note
Some thinner grades of paper may curl and cause media
feeding problems. Always load curled paper concave-
side down.
3.
Pressing both blue tabs at the same time, adjust the
side and end stops to Þt snugly against the loaded paper.
4.
Set the media selector switch on the side of the tray in the upper
position for Paper.
