Use the MP Tray for special print media, such as photo paper or envelopes.
  • If the [Check Paper] setting is set to [On] and you set the paper in the MP tray, a message appears on the LCD, allowing you to change the paper size and paper type.
  • Load only one size and type of paper in the paper tray at a time.
  • When you load a different paper size in the tray, you must change the Paper Size setting in the machine or the paper size setting on your computer.

    Doing this enables the machine to automatically feed paper from the appropriate tray if Auto Tray Select has been set in the printer driver (Windows) or on the machine.

    • DO NOT press the paper guides too tightly against the paper. Doing this may cause the paper to fold and jam.
    • Place the paper in the center of the MP tray between the paper guides. If the paper is not centered, pull it out and insert it again at the center position.
  7. Pull out the paper support (1) until it locks into place, and then unfold the paper support flap (2).
