Loading Paper

You can stack paper in the sheet feeder to load it automatically, or you can manually feed one sheet at a time through the sheet feeder.

You can place approximately 50 sheets of plain paper (20 lb or 75 g/m2) in the sheet feeder at a time.

You can stack approximately 20 sheets of transparency film or 10 sheets of back print film in the sheet feeder. However, these special media may not advance correctly under unusual environmental conditions (such as extreme temperatures or humidity). If you have trouble with special papers becoming skewed or feeding multiple sheets, do not stack them in the sheet feeder. Load them one sheet at a time.
