Tips for selecting and using print media

For the best results, observe the following guidelines:

lPaper that is too thin, has a slick texture, or stretches easily can feed improperly through the printer's paper path.

lPaper that is heavily textured or does not accept ink well can cause poorly filled graphics or text.

lTo ensure that paper feeds properly, load only one type of paper at a time in the main tray.

lDo not use media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled. Do not use media with cutouts or perforations, or media that is heavily textured or embossed. These types of media can cause jams and other problems.

lDo not use multipart forms.

lIn Tray 1 and Tray 2, load media print-side down with the right-hand edge of the media aligned against the right-hand edge of the tray.

lFor the rear manual feed, load media print-side up with the bottom of the paper facing the printer.

lDo not load more than 150 sheets of media into Tray 1.

lIf Tray 2 is installed, do not load more than 250 sheets of plain paper into it.

Minimum margins

The document margins must match (or exceed) these minimum margin settings in portrait orientation:

Letter, legal, Tabloid, Executive, A3, B4, media of user-defined size

lLeft: .25 in (6.4 mm)

lRight: .25 in (6.4 mm)
