CAUTION To avoid a jam, never add or remove paper from Tray 1 or open Tray 2, Tray 3, or Tray 4 while printing or copying from that tray. To avoid damaging the product, print labels and envelopes only from Tray 1. Send labels and envelopes to the face-up bin. Print only one side of labels and envelopes.
1 21 The basics 1 Open Tray 1. 2 Load A4- or Letter-size paper with the long edge leading into the product. See “Paper specifications” on page 83 for more information on loading custom sizes. 1 CAUTION To avoid jams, print sheets of labels one at a time. 3 Adjust the paper guides so they lightly touch the paper stack, but do not bend the paper. 4 Make sure the paper fits under the tabs on the guides and not above the load level indicators.
1 22 The basics Loading Trays 2 and 3 For paper specifications, See “Paper specifications” on page 83. CAUTION To avoid a jam, never add or remove paper from a tray while printing from that tray. 1 Pull Tray 2 open until it stops. 2 Load about 100 sheets of paper according to size. 3 Adjust the left (Y) paper guide by squeezing the tab on the guide and then sliding the guide to the edge of the stack.
1 23 The basics 4 Adjust the front (X) paper guide by squeezing the tab on the guide and sliding the guide to the edge of the paper. 5 Load the remaining paper (up to 500 sheets of standard-size paper), if desired. 6 Set the paper lever to Standard if both guides are set to the same Standard marking, such as Letter or A4. Otherwise, set the lever to Custom. 7 Push the tray in until it stops. 8 Repeat steps 1 through 7 to load Tray 3.
1 24 The basics Loading Tray 4 Tray 4 holds up to 2000 sheets. For paper specifications, see See “Paper specifications” on page 83. CAUTION To avoid a jam, never add or remove paper while printing from that tray. 1 Pull the tray open until it stops. 2 Load about 100 sheets of paper. 3 Adjust the left (Y) paper guide by squeezing the tab on the guide and sliding the guide to the edge of the paper.

Otherwise, set the switch to Custom. 6 Load the remaining paper (up to 2000 sheets of standard-size paper), if desired.
1 26 The basics 7 Press down each of the four corners of the paper stack to ensure the paper rests flat in the tray, without bending. 7 CAUTION Never store paper or other items in the area to the left of the guides. Doing so can permanently damage the tray. 8 Push the tray in until it stops. Note If custom-size media is loaded, note the measurement in millimeters on each guide and go to “Setting the paper size for a tray” on page 27.
1 27 The basics Setting the paper size for a tray Use these guidelines to set the paper size for a tray. l When you load any size print media in Tray 1, you must use the control panel to configure the product to recognize the size loaded. l When you load standard size paper (such as A4 or Letter) in Tray 2, Tray 3, or Tray 4, the product automatically detects the size loaded and shows the size on the control panel. You do not need to set the size manually.
1 28 The basics To set a custom size for Trays 2, 3, and 4 1 Make sure the switch inside the tray you want to configure is in the Custom position. 2 A message on the control panel prompts you to enter the paper size. 3 Touch unit of measure (Millimeters or Inches). (The default is Millimeters because the marks on the tray guides are in millimeters.) 4 Use the numeric keypad to select the X (front to back) dimension. 5 Touch OK.
