*1 A5 can be used in the upper paper tray but cannot be used in other trays (including trays in optional paper feeding unit). *2 When making a large number of copies or prints using 90 g/m2 paper, remove the output from the paper output tray when

about 100 pages have been printed. The output may not stack correctly if more than 100 pages are allowed to accumulate. *3 The number of sheets of the paper which can be set changes with the weight of a paper.

Special papers

Follow these guidelines when using special papers.

Use SHARP recommended transparency film and label sheets. Using other than SHARP recommended paper may result in misfeeds or smudges on the output. If other than SHARP recommended media must be used, feed each sheet one at a time using the bypass tray (do not attempt continuous copying or printing).

There are many varieties of special paper available on the market, and some cannot be used with this machine. Before using special paper, contact your authorised service representative.

Before using other than SHARP recommended paper, make a test copy to see if the paper is suitable.
