When loading paper with a horizontal width of 433 mm (17.1 inches) or more in the bypass tray, use
paper that has a vertical length of 297 mm (11.7 inches) or less. However, when paper larger than
433 mm (17.1 inches) in size is used, the paper may become wrinkled, may not be fed into the
machine, or may cause paper jams.

Load envelopes so that the height of the stack of envelopes does not exceed the limit mark of the bypass

Print quality will decrease if the paper you are using is close to the minimum or maximum weight.
Change the paper weight setting to thinner or thicker.
Certain types of paper, such as translucent paper or OHP transparencies, may produce noise
when delivered. This noise does not indicate a problem and print quality is unaffected.
The paper capacity described in the tables above is an example. Actual paper capacity might be
lower, depending on the paper type.
When loading paper, make sure the stack height does not exceed the limit mark of the paper tray.
If multiple sheet feeding occurs, fan sheets thoroughly or load sheets one by one from the bypass
tray.
