Loading paper and specialty media

This section shows how to load the standard tray (250-sheet tray) and the optional 530-sheet tray which is part of the optional 530-sheet drawer. It also includes information about the standard exit bin.

Loading trays

The printer has two trays to select from: the standard tray (Tray 1), also known as the 250-sheet tray, and the optional 530-sheet tray (Tray 2), which is part of the 530-sheet drawer and fits into the support unit. Load the paper or specialty media used for the majority of print jobs in Tray 1. Proper paper loading prevents jams and facilitates trouble-free printing.

Note: Tray 1 can be used as a letter-size tray or may be extended to a legal-size tray.

Load the standard tray or optional trays in the same way. The width and length guide tabs look different; however, all of them squeeze and move in the same manner.

1Grasp the handle, and pull the tray out. Remove the tray completely.

Note: Do not remove trays while a job prints or while Please Wait blinks on the display. Doing so may cause a jam.

2Squeeze the length guide tabs together as shown. Slide the guide to the correct position for the paper size being loaded.
