Multi-purpose Paper Cassette

The machine’s multi-purpose paper cassette can be adjusted to feed many sizes of paper: letter, legal, A4, B5, A5, B6, A6 and Executive plain paper. When the machine receives print data from your computer, it loads paper from the paper cassette.

■Select the print command from your PC.

Your PC sends a print command and data to the copier/printer. The machine displays PRINTING. If there are more pages, the machine begins to print the next page automatically. When printing is finished, it returns to online status.

You may select the proper paper source, paper size, and page orientation in your application software.

If your application software does not support your custom paper size, select the next larger paper size. Then adjust the print area by changing the right and left margins in your application software. (See Acceptable Paper, page 2-5.)

Use the manual feed slot for envelopes, labels, transparencies, card stock or thicker paper.

Two-Sided Printing (Manual Duplex)

The supplied printer drivers enable manual duplex printing. (For more information, see the Help screen for the printer driver.)

The machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper first.

Then, the Windows® driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well, or you may get a paper jam. Very thin or

very thick paper is not recommended.

Caution

When you use manual duplexing, it is possible that a paper jam may occur or the print quality might not be satisfactory. (See Paper is Jammed in the Multi-purpose Paper Cassette, page 11-4.)
