Printing small or narrow paper

Follow the guidelines below if you will be printing primarily on small or narrow paper:

Use the 6,000-page toner cartridge (part number C8061A). Toner might leak if large quantities of small or narrow media are printed using the 10,000-page cartridge (part number C8061X). (See “Ordering information” on page 22.)

Print from tray 1 to the rear output bin if you experience problems such as paper jams or curl.

See “Printing cards, custom-size, and heavy paper” on page 63 for further information on printing on non-standard sizes.
