Paper loading tips

Load a stack of paper (not just one page). All of the paper in the stack should be the same size and type to avoid a paper jam.

Load paper with side to be printed on facing up.

Ensure that paper loaded in the input tray lays flat and the edges are not bent or torn.

Adjust the paper-width guide in the input tray to fit snugly against all paper. Make sure the paper-width guide does not bend the paper in the input tray.

For more information, see Load media.

On the Paper/Quality tab of the print driver, select the appropriate paper type and quality from the Media drop down menu.

Click the Advanced button, and select the appropriate Paper Size from the Paper/ Output drop-down menu.
