Check 3: Make sure of the following when you load paper.
|
| Summary |
- When loading two or more sheets of paper, flip through the paper before loading.
- When loading two or more sheets of paper, align the edges of the sheets before loading.
- When loading two or more sheets of paper, make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the paper load limit.
However, proper feeding of paper may not be possible at this maximum capacity depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or low temperature and humidity). In such cases, reduce the sheets of paper you load at a time to less than half of the paper load limit.
- Always load the paper in portrait orientation, regardless of the printing orientation.
- When you load the paper, load the paper with the print side facing DOWN and slide the paper guides to align with the sides of the paper.
- When you load the paper, insert the paper stack until the leading edge touches the far end of the front tray.
