How should I load envelopes?

• See below.

  Loading Paper in the Printer

  You can print on a variety of paper types and sizes.
  1. Open the rear paper feed slot and extend the paper support.
     
  2. Slide the edge guide left.
     
  3. Insert paper, glossy or printable side up and short edge first, against the right side and behind the tab. If you are inserting a stack of paper, fan the sheets first and tap the stack on a flat surface to even the edges.
     
     

     Note: To load envelopes, insert up to 10 envelopes against the right side and behind the tab, printable side up, and flap edge left.
     
     

  4. Slide the edge guide against the paper, but not too tightly.
     
     

     Caution:
     Do not move the tray lever while the product is printing.

  Always follow these paper loading guidelines:
  • Load only the recommended number of sheets.
  • Load paper short edge first and printable side up.
  • Load letterhead or pre-printed paper top edge first.
  • Do not load paper above the arrow mark inside the edge guide.
  • If you have trouble loading a stack of envelopes, press each envelope flat before loading it or load one envelope at a time.
  • Do not load binder paper with holes in it.
  • Check the paper package for any additional loading instructions.
