Loading paper and specialty media

39

Load envelopes with the flap on the left side facedown.

Warning—Potential Damage: Never use envelopes with stamps, clasps, snaps, windows, coated linings, or selfstick adhesives. These envelopes may severely damage the printer.

5From the printer control panel, set the paper size and paper type in the Paper menu to match the paper or specialty media loaded in the multipurpose feeder.

Linking and unlinking trays

When one linked tray becomes empty, paper feeds from the next linked tray. We recommended giving all custom paper, such as letterhead and different colored plain papers, a different custom type name so that the trays they are in do not automatically link.

Linking and unlinking trays

1Open a Web browser, and then type the printer IP address in the address field.

Notes:

View the printer IP address on the printer control panel in the TCP/IP section under the Network/Ports menu. The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.

If you are using a proxy server, then temporarily disable it to load the Web page correctly.

2Click Settings > Paper Menu.

3Change the paper size and type settings for the trays you are linking.

To link trays, make sure the paper size and type for the tray match that of the other tray.

To unlink trays, make sure the paper size or type for the tray does not match that of the other tray.

4Click Submit.

Note: You can also change the paper size and type settings using the printer control panel. For more information, see “Setting the paper size and type” on page 30.

Warning—Potential Damage: Paper loaded in the tray should match the paper type name assigned in the printer. The temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified paper type. Printing issues may occur if settings are not properly configured.
