Loading original documents and paper

3.5

Load the print material you use for the majority of your print 

jobs in the paper input tray. The paper input tray can hold a 

maximum of 250 sheets of 20 lb (75 g/m

2

) plain paper. 

To load paper, pull open the paper input tray and load paper 

with the side to be printed on face down.

You can load letterhead paper with the design side face down. 

The top edge of the sheet with the logo should be placed at the 

front of the paper input tray.

For details about loading paper in the tray, see page 2.3.

: 

• If you experience problems with paper feed, place one sheet 

at a time in the manual feeder.

• You can load previously printed paper. The printed side 

should be facing up with an uncurled edge at the front. If 

you experience problems with paper feed, turn the paper 

around. Note that the print quality is not guaranteed.

Preprinted paper

• Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink 

that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous 

emissions when subjected to the machine’s fusing 
temperature of 208° C (406.4° F) for 0.1 second.

• Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should 

not adversely affect printer rollers.

• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a 

moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during 

storage.

• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms and 

letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. 

During the fusing process, wet ink can come off 
preprinted paper, reducing print quality.

Use the manual feeder to print transparencies, labels, 

envelopes or postcards in addition to making quick runs of 

paper types or sizes that are not currently loaded in the paper 

input tray.

To load print material in the manual feeder:

Load a sheet of the print material with the side to be 

printed on facing up into the center of the manual 

feeder.

Depending on the paper type you are using, keep the 

following loading method:

• Envelopes: load a sheet with the flap side down and with 

the stamp area on the top left side.

• Transparencies: load a sheet with the print side up and 

the top with the adhesive strip entering the machine 

first.

• Labels: load a sheet with the print size up and top short 

edge entering the machine first.

• Preprinted paper: load a sheet with the design face up, 

top edge toward the machine.

• Card: load a sheet with the print side up and the short 

edge entering the machine first.

• Pre printed paper: load a sheet with the printed side 

down and an uncurled edge toward the machine.
