Paper Handling

 

Question

Recommendation

The printer does not load paper.

∙ Check to see if the “Paper Empty” message appears

 

on your computer screen or the Alarm and Paper

 

lamps are blinking on the printer control panel. If

 

so, the multi-purpose sheet feeder may be out of

 

paper or not properly installed. If it is empty, load a

 

new stack of paper into the feeder.

 

∙ If there is paper in the multi-purpose sheet feeder,

 

make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled, you

 

should straighten it before printing. Sometimes it is

 

helpful to remove the paper, turn the stack over and

 

put it back into the paper tray.

 

∙ Reduce the amount of paper in the multi-purpose

 

sheet feeder, then try again.

Re-insert the paper firmly, one sheet at a time.

from the manual feed slot.

 

How can I load envelopes?

You can load envelopes from either the multi-purpose

 

sheet feeder or the manual feed slot. Your application

 

software must be set up correctly to print on the

 

envelope size you are using. This is usually done in the

 

page setup or document setup menu of your software.

 

Refer to your application manual.

What paper can I use?

You can use plain paper, envelopes, transparencies,

 

labels, and organizer paper. For information on loading

 

paper, see “Paper Handling” in Chapter 2.

How can I clear paper jams?

See “ PAPER JAMS” in this chapter.
