Using Postcards You can print on a variety of postcards, loading them in the same
way as you load single sheets: from the paper guide or with the
optional cut-sheet feeder. (For instructions on loading single
sheets, read this section and see “Using Single Sheets” on page 3-6
or “Loading paper from the cut-sheet feeder” in Chapter 5.)
Before printing, set the paper thickness lever to “2.” Then select
Card mode by pressing the Tear Off/Bin button until both
Tear Off/Bin lights are on.
Load postcards printable side up. Make sure that the right edge
guide is aligned with the arrow on the paper guide, and position
the left edge guide to match the width of your postcard.
cCaution:
❑Card mode is available only when the paper thickness lever
is set to “2” or higher on the scale.
❑When printing on postcards, make sure that yo ur software
settings keep the printing entirely within the printable
area. Printing on the edge of a postcard can damage the
print head. For information about the printable area, see
the paper specifications in Appendix A.
❑Use postcards only under normal operating con ditions.
