Where can print media be loaded in the printer?

Your printer has two standard paper sources: an automatic 250-sheet paper feeder (Tray 1) and a single-sheet manual feeder. Use Tray 1 for most print jobs. Use the manual feeder for a single piece of paper, transparency, envelope, paper label, card stock, or index card.

An output bin on top of the printer holds up to 150 sheets. The single-sheet rear exit provides a straight-through paper path to help reduce curling and potential jams. This is especially useful for specialty media, such as transparencies, envelopes, paper labels, card stock, or index cards
