Loading the Manual Feeder

The manual feeder is located at the front of your printer and can only feed one sheet of print media at a time. You can use the manual feeder to make quick runs of paper types or sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper tray.

To load the manual feeder:

1.Place a sheet of the selected print media, print side facing up, at the center of the manual feeder, but only to the point where its leading edge can contact the paper guides. Otherwise, the printer engages the print media too soon and likely skews the print job.

2.Adjust the paper guides to the print media's width.

3.Hold both sides of the print media close to the manual feeder, and push it into the printer until it automatically engages.

There is a brief pause between the time the printer engages the print media and when it feeds into the printer.

NOTICE: Do not force the print media into the feeder. Forcing the media causes jams.

Insert envelopes with the flap side facing down and with the stamp area as shown.

Hold transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. Oil from your fingers that is deposited on the transparency can affect print quality.
