Installing the paper guide

Install the paper guide, which is used here as a paper separator, as described below. Note that the guide is installed in one of two different positions depending on the type of paper you use. It lies flat when you use continuous-feed paper, as described here, and sits upright for loading single-sheet paper.

1.If the edge guides are not yet in place, install them by hooking the tab on the back of each guide over the top of the paper guide, as shown in Figure 1-13. Snap the bottom of each guide into place.
