Paper Usage Guidelines

Each printer tray accommodates certain sizes and types of paper or other specialty media. Follow these guidelines when loading paper in the trays:

Fan paper before loading it in the tray.

Do not print on label stock once a label has been removed from a sheet.

Use only paper envelopes. Do not use envelopes with windows, metal clasps, or adhesives with release strips.

Print all envelopes 1-sided only.

Some wrinkling and embossing can occur when printing envelopes.

Do not overload the paper trays. Do not load paper above the fill line on the inside of the paper guide.

Adjust the paper guides to fit the paper size. The paper guides click into place when they are adjusted correctly.

If excessive jams occur, use paper or other media from a new package.
