*1: Only load Plain paper or Super White Paper in the front tray. All other types of paper should be loaded in the rear tray. Loading them in the front feeder may cause a machine malfunction.
*2: Make sure to set Credit Card sized paper with the short-side down. Setting Credit Card sized paper with the long-side down will cause paper jam.
*3: Set Envelope with the flap closed.
