Special Paper
Thick Paper
Fan the stack of paper and align the edges before loading them in the MP tray. Some types of paper have rough edges on the back (those are created when the paper is cut). In this case, put the paper on a flat place and rub the edges once or twice with, for example, a ruler to smooth them in the
same way as described in Postcards on page
If the paper jams even after you smooth it out in such a way, set the paper in the MP tray with the leading edge raised up a few millimeters as shown in the illustration.

Select recycled paper that meets the same specifications as the white bond paper (see Table
Before purchasing recycled paper, test a sample on the printer and check that the printing quality is satisfactory.
