Printing guide Page 2 of 3 Loading the multipurpose feeder You can use the multipurpose feeder one of two ways: • Paper tray-As a paper tray, you can load paper or specialty media in the feeder with the intention of leaving the media in the feeder. • Manual bypass feeder-As a manual bypass feeder, you can send a print job to the feeder while specifying the type and size of media from your computer. The printer then prompts you to load the appropriate print media before it prints. To load the multipurpose feeder: 1 Open the multipurpose feeder. 2 Squeeze the paper guide lever and slide the guide all the way toward the front of the printer. 3 Flex the sheets back and forth to loosen them, and then fan them. Do not fold or crease the print media. Straighten the edges of the stack on a level surface. 4 Arrange the stack of paper or specialty media correctly for the size, type, and print method you are using. 5 Place the paper or specialty media, print side up, along the left side of the multipurpose feeder, and then push it in as far as it will easily go. Do not force the media. Note: Do not exceed the maximum stack height. Overfilling the feeder may cause jams. 6 Squeeze the paper guide lever and slide the guide until it lightly touches the side of the stack. 7 If you are loading a different type of media than was previously loaded in the tray, change the Paper Type setting for that tray on the operator panel.
