Loading paper in a tray

To change the paper in a tray, load the desired paper in the tray and then change the tray settings in the machine to specify the loaded paper. The procedure for changing the tray paper size is explained below. As an example, the paper in tray 1 is changed from A4 (8-1/2" x 11") size plain paper to A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2") size recycled paper.

Gently pull out the paper tray. If paper remains in the tray, remove it.

Move the two guides on the tray. For example, move the guides from

A4 (8-1/2" x 11") to A5 (5-1/2" x 8-1/2"). Adjust the guides to match the paper being loaded. If the guides are too loose, the paper will not be held in place. If the guides are too tight, the paper will bow.

Load the paper so that it is not as shown below when viewed from the front and side of the machine.

The loaded paper should not go higher than these protrusions.

Insert the paper with the print side face up.

Fan the paper well before inserting it. Otherwise, multiple sheets may feed at once and cause a misfeed. Insert the paper and then gently push the tray into the machine.

Indicator line

The indicator line indicates the maximum height of the paper that can be loaded in the tray. When loading paper, make sure that the stack is not higher than the indicator line.
