Caution:
Never attempt to print on labels when the cut sheet feeder is
installed.
Loading single sheets
Your cut
sheet
feeder also has a single sheet loading feature. This feature
is especially useful because it allows you to switch to a different type or
sire of paper without replacing the supply of paper already in your cut
sheet feeder.
Your printer uses
the
same page length for
the
single sheet loading feature
as the page length set for CSF bin 1. Thus, if you wish to change the
page length for this feature, adjust the page length for CSF bin 1. (See the
Page Length section in Chapter 3.)
Before loading
a single
sheet, be sure
that:
l
The cut sheet feeder is installed.
l
The printer is off line.
1. Press the PAPER SELECT button until the CSF light goes on and
CSF
bin
1 is briefly displayed.
