Changing the size of the paper in the paper tray
To load longer sizes of paper, such as Legal-sized paper, you need to
adjust the paper guides to extend the paper tray.
1Adjust the paper length guide to the desired paper length. It is
preset to Letter or A4 size depending on the country. To load
another size, lift and insert the length guide into the corresponding
position.
Notes
• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet at
a time in the multi-purpose tray.
• You can load previously printed paper. The printed side should
be facing up with an uncurled edge at the front. If you
experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper around.
Note that print quality is not guaranteed.

guide as shown, move it toward the stack of paper until it lightly
touches the side of the stack. Do not press the guide too tightly to
the edge of the paper; the guide may bend the paper.
In the multi-purpose tray
The multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print material,
such as transparencies, postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is useful
for single page printing on letterhead or colored paper.
To load paper in the multi-purpose tray:
Notes
• Do not push the paper width guides far enough to cause the
materials to warp.
• If you do not adjust the paper width guides, it may cause paper
jams.
