Media paths

Main input tray

The enclosed main input tray, located in front of the printer, holds up to 250 sheets of 20 lb paper, multiple envelopes, or other media.

Priority input tray

You should use the priority input tray when feeding up to 10 sheets of 20 lb paper or when printing single envelopes, postcards, labels, or transparencies. You can also use the priority input tray to print the first page on different media than the rest of the document.

Note

The printer automatically prints from the priority input tray before printing from the main input tray.

See Media for more information about media types.

Printer media guides

Both input trays have side media guides. The main input tray also has a rear media guide. Media guides ensure that the media is correctly fed into the printer and that the print is not skewed (crooked on the media). When loading media, adjust the media guides to match the width and length of the media that you are using.
