This section describes the type, size, feed direction, and maximum amount of pa- per that can be loaded into each paper tray in this printer.

Important

❒If you use damp or curled paper, a misfeed might occur. In such a case, try turning over the paper stack in the paper tray. If there is no improvement, change to paper with less curl.

❒Be sure to set the paper size dial to match the actual paper size loaded in the tray. When the actual paper size is not shown on the dial, set the dial to “p” and selected the paper size using the operation panel.

❒For Tray 1, 2, and 3, the dial setting overrides settings selected with the oper- ation panel.
