Handling Paper

Loading the paper trays

Things to keep in mind

Before you start loading any type of media into the printer, lift the paper output tray. Lower the paper output tray and gently close the loaded paper tray.

Pull the paper stop (at the edge of paper output tray) until it is fully extended.

If the paper you are going to use is less than A4 size, lift the hinged end of the paper stop toward you until it perpendicular to the paper stop. This prevents the printed paper from sliding off of the paper output tray as it exits the printer.

If the paper you use is longer than A4 size, including Legal and panoramic photo paper, make sure that the hinged end of the paper stop lays flat and is NOT pulled up. The longer paper should balance on the paper output tray without sliding off.

Caution: This is crucially important when you are printing two or more sheets of long paper. Long paper that cannot extend straight to its full length when output from the printer can fold behind the object ahead of it. The curl can result in a job that dissatisfies you, and it can also causes a blockade preventing paper still being printed from exiting the printer properly.

Although a paper curl should not interrupt a job involving just one sheet of long paper, when a sheet’s clean exit from the printer is impeded because the sheet before it is curled by the paper stop, the current sheet also curls upon itself, generally behind rather than atop the sheet that came before. This process repeats until, eventually, the trapped sheets jam the paper inside the printer, which cannot free themselves from the print roller and onto the paper output tray.
