BASIC INFORMATION
GETTING STARTED
Do not use paper that is wavy, torn, cut, folded,
damp, too thick, too thin or paper that has stickers
stuck to it. Using these types of paper causes paper
jams and smears.
5.
Make sure that you are using long-grain paper. If you
are not sure about the paper type, check the paper
packaging or contact the manufacturer to confirm
the paper type.
6.
If the paper is curled, flatten it or curl it slightly in
the opposite direction before loading. Printing
on curled paper may cause paper jams and
smears on the printout.
4.
PAPER-HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Read the instruction sheets supplied with the paper. 1.
Fan and align the edges of the paper before loading. 2.
Do not fan or curl the paper.
Doing so may damage the printable side. 3.
GETTING STARTED
HOW TO LOAD PAPER

Ÿ Do not load more than the maximum number of sheets specified for the
paper. For plain paper, do not load above the line located just under the

Ÿ Load the paper’s short edge first. However, when you have set the long
edge as the width of the user-defined size, load paper long edge first.
NOTE:
Slide the edge guides to the edges of the paper,

Slide out the output tray. 5.
