Do not mix paper types or sizes in the input tray. • Do not load more than 20 sheets of 10 x 15 cm (4 x 6 inches) photo paper. • Do not load more than 10 sheets of 10 x 30 cm (4 x 12 inches) photo paper for panoramic printing. Loading more than ten sheets can cause paper feed problems. • If you are using tabbed paper, load the paper so the tab feeds in last. Paper basics 9
