Loading media into the input trays

Main input tray

The main input tray holds up to 250 pages of 20 lb paper or fewer

pages of heavier media (25 mm or less stack). Load media with

the top forward and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent

jams and skewing, always adjust the side and rear media guides.

Priority input tray

The priority input tray holds up to 10 pages of 20 lb paper or one

envelope, transparency, or card. Load media with the top forward

and the side to be printed facing up. To prevent jams and

skewing, always adjust the side media guides.

CAUTION

If you try to print on media that is wrinkled, folded, or damaged in any

way, a jam might occur. See Printer media specifications

for more

information.

Note

When you add new media, make sure that you remove all of the media

from the input tray and straighten the stack of new media. This helps

prevent multiple sheets of media from feeding through the printer at

one time, reducing media jams.
