3.Load paper in the tray with the side to be printed on facing down, and the top of the paper on the left.

4.Adjust the side guides so that they lightly touch the paper stack but do not bend the paper.

Note

CAUTION

Make sure the paper does not exceed the maximum stack height indicator mark in the tray.

Printing envelopes from Tray 1

Many types of envelopes can be printed from Tray 1. Up to 20 envelopes can be stacked in the tray. Printing performance depends on the construction of the envelope.

In the software, set margins at least 15 mm (0.6 inches) from the edge of the envelope.

Envelopes with clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, exposed self-stick adhesives, or other synthetic materials can severly damage the printer. To avoid jams and possible printer damage, never try to print on both sides of an envelope. Before you load envelopes, make sure they are flat, undamaged, and not stuck together. Do not use envelopes with pressure- sensitive adhesive. To avoid jams, do not remove or insert envelopes during printing.
