Loading the manual feeder

The manual feeder can feed different types of print media, such as a transparency, postcard, note card, or envelope. It can be used for single-page printing only.

1Slide the width guides to the outside of the feeder.

2Place a sheet of the selected print media, print side facing up, at the center fo the manual feeder, but only to the point where its leading edge can contact the paper guides. Load one sheet of the media in the feeder.

•Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side.

•Insert envelopes with the flap side face down.

•Load letterhead faceup, with the top of the sheet entering first.

•If you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper over.
