Paper Trays

IN Tray

To print, place paper or other media types in the IN tray. Pull out this tray for easy loading. Load media print side down. Slide all media as far as it will go into the IN tray. Once you insert the media you want to use, slide the paper guides so they rest snugly against the media. Make sure the IN tray is pushed back in.

OUT Tray

The printer sends finished pages to the OUT tray. The OUT tray can be up or down depending on what you’re printing.

Down – This is the typical position for most types of printing. The down position also allows single envelope printing. For information about printing on other media, see Chapter 2.

Up – The OUT tray must be in the up position to properly load HP Premium Plus Photo Paper, Glossy 4 x 6 in., 102 x 152 mm (with tear-off tab). To print banners, the OUT tray must remain in the up position.
