LOADING PAPER IN THE TRAY 3/4

A maximum of 500 sheets of paper from A3 to B5R (11" x 17" to 7-1/4" × 10-1/2"R) can be loaded into tray 3. A maximum of 500 sheets of paper from A3 to A5R (11" x 17" to 5-1/2" × 8-1/2"R) can be loaded into tray 4.

Other than plain paper, special media such as transparency film and tab paper can be loaded into tray 4. To load tab paper, the dedicated guide must be installed. If you loaded paper of a different type or size from the paper previously loaded, be sure to check the settings in "Settings (administrator)". An incorrect setting may cause print failure, printing on paper of an incorrect size, or type or paper misfeeds.

Caution

Do not place heavy objects on the tray or press down on the tray.
  • To check the type and size of paper:
  • [Tray Settings] in the home screen or in "Settings", select [Status] → [Machine Identification] → [Paper Input Tray Status].

Pull out the paper tray.

Keep holding the handle until the lock is released.

Adjust guide plates A and B by squeezing their lock levers and sliding them to match the longitudinal and transversal dimensions of the paper to be loaded.

The guide plates A and B are slidable. Slide each guide plate while squeezing its lock lever to adjust to the paper size.
A non-standard size of paper can only be loaded in tray 4. A non-standard size of paper cannot be loaded in tray 3.

Fan the paper.

Fan the paper well before loading it. If the paper is not fanned, multiple sheets may feed at once and cause a misfeed.
