Paper Recommendations
Your MFP will handle a variety of print media, including a range of paper weights and
sizes, transparencies and envelopes. This section provides general advice on choice
of media, and explains how to use each type.
Standard Paper: The best performance will be obtained when using standard 60 to
120 g/m² paper designed for use in copiers and laser printers.
Not Recommended: Use of heavily embossed or very rough textured paper is not
recommended.
Letterhead Stationery:
Pre-printed
stationery can be used, but the ink must not offset
when exposed to the high fuser temperatures used in the printing process.
Tray 1
The paper tray can handle paper weights of 16 to 32 lb. US Bond (60 to 120 g/m²).

Note
The optional second tray can also handle the above paper sizes except
for Statement.
If you have identical paper stock loaded in another tray (the optional 2nd or the multi
purpose tray) you can have the MFP switch to another tray when the current tray runs
out of paper. When printing from Windows
applications,
this function is enabled in the
driver settings. When printing from other systems, this function is enabled in the
Printer menu.
