Loading media into the input trays
| The following sections describe how to load media into the different input trays. |
| If you try to print on media that is wrinkled, folded, or damaged in any way, a jam might |

| occur. See Printer media considerations for more information. |
NOTE
Priority feed slot
The priority feed slot holds one sheet of media up to 163 g/m2 (43 lb) or one envelope, transparency, or cardstock. Load media with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent jams and skewing, always adjust the side media guides before feeding the media.
250-sheet main input tray
The input tray holds up to 250 pages of 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper or fewer pages of heavier media of 25 mm (0.9 inches) or less stack height. Load media with the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent jams and skewing, always adjust the side and front media guides.
When you add new media, make sure that you remove all of the media from the input tray and straighten the stack of new media. This helps prevent multiple sheets of media from feeding through the printer at one time, reducing media jams.
