You can switch between manual and auto paper feed methods by pressing the Feeder Selection button. The Auto Feed lamp is lit when feeding paper automatically, and the Paper Tray lamp is lit when feeding paper manually.

When loading paper in the tray, you must specify manual feed. Press Feeder Selection to light up the Paper Tray lamp (a).

Caution

If you insert the edge of a roll in the Paper Feed Slot after you have selected sheets as the type of paper in the media source on the Control Panel and specied the type and size of paper, the printer will prepare to print on the roll. If you print under these conditions, an error will occur when the roll is ejected. (→P.708)
