Chapter 3 - Tips on Using Paper Inserting Paper
1. Use both hands to hold the paper straight while you insert it into the
printer’s paper input slot. Make sure the bottom edge of the paper
is parallel to the feed roller.
2. Press the paper gently into the printer’s input slot until the roller
pulls it into the starting position, then let go. See Figure 14.
FIGURE 14. Inserting paper
If the paper is skewed after the printer pulls it into the starting position,
you can correct the situation as follows:
• If the printer does not start to print immediately, open the release
cover as far back as it will go. See Figures 15 and 16, pages 43
and 44. Pull the paper out, close the cover, and reinsert paper.
• If the printer does start to print, wait for the page to be printed and
then reprint that page if necessary.
NOTE: If you insert paper into the printer before you start the print
job, you will have time to adjust the paper if it is skewed
after the printer pulls it into the starting position.
