HP LaserJet 1020 - User Guide

Media paths
The following sections describe the input trays and output bin.
Priority feed slot
You should use the priority feed slot when feeding one sheet of paper, envelope, postcard, label, or
transparency. You can also use the priority feed slot to print the first page on different media than the
rest of the document.
Media guides ensure that the media is correctly fed into the printer and that the print is not skewed
(crooked on the media). When loading media, adjust the media guides to match the width of the media
that you are using.
See Choosing paper and other media on page 22 for more information about media types.
Main input tray
The main input tray, accessed from the front of the printer, holds up to 150 sheets of 20-lb paper or other
media. For information about media specifications, see
Printer capacities and ratings on page 75.
Media guides ensure the media is correctly fed into the printer and the print is not skewed (crooked on
the media). The main input tray has both side and front media guides. When loading media, adjust the
media guides to match the length and width of the media that you are using.
Output bin
The output bin is located on the top of the printer. Printed media is collected here in the correct sequence.
The output media support provides improved stacking for large print jobs.
