**. Capacity may vary depending on print materials’ weight and thickness, and environmental conditions.

NOTE: You may experience jams when using print materials with a length of less than 127 mm (5 in.). For optimum performance, ensure that you are storing and handling the paper correctly. Please refer to “Printer and Paper Storage Environment” on page A.9.

For the best result, use conventional 75 g/m2 (20 lb) paper. Ensure that the paper is of good quality, and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.

If you are unsure of what type of paper you are loading, such as bond or recycled paper, check the label on the package.
