Service manual

For information about loading special print media such as envelopes, labels, and transparencies, see
Print-media specifications on page 13.
To load Tray 1
1. Media guides ensure that the media is correctly fed into the printer and that the print is not
skewed. Slide the media-width guides slightly wider than the print media.
2. Feed print media into Tray 1 with the side to be printed down, and the top, short edge in first.
Make sure that the media is inserted far enough into the printer for the paper feed mechanism
to grab the media. The paper will reach the sensor after 140 mm (5.5 inches) has been inserted.
The printer will then pause for .5 second before it pulls the paper into the printer. HP
recommends holding the paper on both sides when inserting.
NOTE Light weight paper may buckle if held only on the short (far) edge as it is
inserted. As paper is inserted, it trips the registration shutter. For light weight paper,
holding it on both sides near the slot increases the ability for the paper to appropriately
trip this shutter.
