This section explains how to use the 250-sheet tray, the manual feeder, an optional 550-sheet tray, and the 650-sheet duo drawer with an integrated multipurpose feeder. It also includes information about paper orientation, setting the Paper Size and Paper Type, and linking and unlinking trays.

Setting the paper size and type

The Paper Size setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set manually from the Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting must be set manually for all trays that do not contain plain paper.

From the home screen navigate to:

> Paper Menu > Paper Size/Type > select a tray > select the paper size or type > Submit

Configuring Universal paper settings

The Universal Paper Size is a userdefined setting that lets you print on paper sizes that are not preset in the printer menus. Set the Paper Size for the specified tray to Universal when the size you want is not available from the Paper Size menu. Then, specify all of the following Universal size settings for your paper:

Units of Measure

Portrait Width

Portrait Height

Note: The smallest supported Universal size is 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 in.); the largest size is 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 in.).

Loading the standard 250sheet tray and optional 550sheet tray

The printer has one standard 250-sheet tray (Tray 1) with an attached manual feeder. The 250-sheet tray, the 650- sheet duo drawer, and the optional 550-sheet tray support the same paper sizes and types and are loaded in the same way.

Note: Some printer models may not support the optional 550sheet tray.

CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each paper drawer or tray separately. Keep all other drawers or trays closed until needed.

1Pull the tray out.

Note: Do not remove trays while a job is printing or while Busy appears on the display. Doing so may cause a jam.
