Description

If the paper source setting is not changed since you purchased this machine, the paper source for plain paper is the cassette.

Solution

Paper Sources to Load Paper

The machine has two paper sources to feed paper; cassette and rear tray. You can load paper in either one of the paper sources, depending on the page size and media type of paper. Paper is fed from the cassette or rear tray depending on the selection of the page size or media type.

-> Media Types You Can Use
  • When printing, select the correct page size and media type. If you select the wrong page size or media type, the machine may feed paper from the wrong paper source or may not print with the proper print quality.

    For details on how to load paper in each paper source, see below.
    -> Refer to Loading Plain Paper in the Cassette
    -> Refer to Loading Photo Paper in the Rear Tray
    -> Refer to Loading Envelopes in the Rear Tray

  • When ON is selected for Auto feed switch in FAX paper settings and the paper source used when you last printed is empty, the machine automatically switches to the other paper source and prints received faxes.

 

Loading Plain Paper in the cassette

When A4, B5, A5, or Letter-sized plain paper is used load it in the cassette. The machine will automatically feed paper from the cassette when plain paper is selected (A4, B5, A5, or Letter size) in the print settings with the operation panel or the printer driver when printing. If you prefer to load letter-sized plain paper and have it feed from the rear tray, change the Plain paper feed setting.


 

Loading Photo Paper / Envelopes in the rear tray

When photo paper is used load it in the rear tray. The machine will automatically feed paper from the rear tray when media types other than plain paper, such as photo paper, in the print settings with the operation panel or the printer driver when printing. If you prefer to load letter-sized plain paper and have it feed from the rear tray, change the Plain paper feed setting.
