Loading Special Papers

Follow the guidelines in this section when loading continuous multipart forms, single-sheet multipart forms, labels, and envelopes.

Continuous multipart forms

Except for setting the paper-thickness lever, you load continuous multipart forms the same way as ordinary continuous paper. Just keep the following in mind:

❏Be sure your multipart forms do not exceed 0.46 mm (0.018 inch) in thickness.

❏Do not load paper that is curled or has been folded.

❏Thick paper, such as multipart forms with five or six parts, requires a straight paper path to avoid paper jams. Load thick paper in the front or bottom slots.

Single-sheet multipart forms

To load single-sheet multipart forms, use the front paper entry slot with the optional front paper guide or front sheet guide installed. Thick paper, such as multipart forms with five or six parts, requires a straight paper path to avoid paper jams. For more information, see the Reference Guide.
