*5-1/2" x 8-1/2" paper must be loaded in paper tray 1 or the bypass tray. (p.00) If loaded in paper tray 2 or in the 250-sheet paper feed unit / 2 x 250-sheet paper feed unit, a misfeed may occur.

Special papers

Follow these guidelines when using special papers.

●Envelopes

Do not use the following envelopes, as misfeeds will occur.

•Envelopes with metal tabs, clasps, strings, holes, or windows.

•Envelopes with rough fibers, carbon paper, or glossy surfaces.

•Envelopes with two or more flaps.

•Envelopes with tape, film, or paper attached to the flap.

•Envelopes with a fold in the flap.

•Envelopes with glue on the flap to be moistened for sealing.

•Envelopes with labels or stamps.

•Envelopes that are slightly inflated with air.

•Envelopes with glue protruding from the seal area.

•Envelopes with part of the seal area peeled off.

●Load 2- or 3-holed paper so that the side with the holes faces away from the paper feed intake.

●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 a SHARP service center.

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