Loading tray 1
Tray 1 is a multi-purpose tray that holds
up to 100 sheets of paper, 10 envelopes,
or 20 index cards. The printer’s default is
to pull paper from tray 1 first. To change
this, see “Customizing tray 1 operation”
on page 69.
Tray 1 provides a convenient way to print
envelopes, transparencies, custom-size
paper, or other types of media without
having to unload the other trays. It can
also be used just as a convenient
additional input tray. For supported sizes
of paper, see “Supported sizes and
weights of paper” on page 189.
Note
To avoid paper jams, do not load trays
while the printer is printing.
1
Open tray 1.
2
Pull out the tray extension.
3
Set the side guides to the desired
width.
4
Load paper in the tray.
Note
Make sure the paper fits under the tabs
on the guides and not above the load
level indicators.
Generally, load paper with the side to be
printed up, and the top, short edge
toward the printer. For information on
loading special paper, see “Printing
special paper” on page 53.
5
Adjust the side guides so that they
lightly touch the paper stack but do
not bend the paper.
