Acceptable print media are plain paper with sizes ranging from 4x6,to Legal 14”, the largest size acceptable, and weighing between 16lb and 50lb/ 60g/m2 and 190g/m2.

The following table summarizes the print media allowed as well as their stacking height limit.

Envelope (Monroe brand	10 envelopes or 9mm (max)*
Com#10)
Transparency (Xerox 3R2780)	40 sheets or 9mm (max)*
Label (Xerox 3R4469)	40 sheets or 9mm (max)*

*The height is measured with the stack of sheets laid, without being touched by hands, on a flat surface.

• Always load only the print media specified in 3-1 Selecting Print Media to avoid paper jams and print quality problems.

•Do not hit the multi-sheet bypass feeder or rest your hands on it; otherwise the feeder may be damaged or detached from the printer.

•Remove any curl on postcards, envelopes, and labels before loading them into the multi-sheet bypass feeder.

•Do not load paper into the multi-sheet bypass feeder during printer installation. Be sure to wait until the printer’s power is turned on and the printer becomes ready for the first time, then load paper.
