The bypass tray can be used to feed standard paper, transparency film, labels, envelopes, and other special purpose paper.

Up to 50 sheets of standard copy paper can be inserted in the bypass tray. (Capacity will vary depending on the type of paper loaded.)
Be sure to place envelopes horizontally as shown in the following diagram.

•When loading envelopes, make sure that they are straight and flat and do not have loosely glued construction flaps (not the closure flap).
•Special papers except SHARP recommended transparency film, labels, and envelopes must be fed one sheet at a time through the bypass tray.
•When adding paper, first remove any paper remaining in the tray, combine it with the paper to be added and then reload as a single stack. The paper to be added must be the same size and type as the paper already in the tray.
•Do not use paper that is smaller than the original. This may cause smudges or unclean images.
•Do not use paper that has already been printed on by a laser printer or plain paper fax machine. This may cause smudges or unclean images.
