3. Flex or fan the edge of the paper stack to separate the pages before loading papers. machine. 3. Place paper with the side you want to print facing up. To keep paper with perforated lines from sticking together when printing, you must fan the sheets before feeding them into the machine. 4. After inserting paper into the tray, squeeze the paper width guides and slide them to the desired paper size marked at the bottom of the tray.
Multi-purpose tray 3. Load the paper. The multi-purpose tray can hold special sizes and types of print material, such as postcards, note cards, and envelopes. It is useful for single page printing on letterhead or colored paper. Print media should be loaded face down with the top edge going into the multi-purpose tray first and be placed in the center of the tray. Tips on using the multi-purpose tray • Load only one type, size and weight of print media at a time in the multi-purpose tray.
For example, if you want to use a label, set the paper type to Label. d) Select MP Tray in paper source, then press OK. e) Start printing in application. f) After printing, close the multi-purpose tray. Printing on special media The table below shows the available special media for each tray. When using special media, we recommend you feed one paper at a time.

• • To prevent transparencies from sticking to each other, do not let the printed sheets stack up as they are begin printed out. Recommended media: Transparency for color laser printers produced by Xerox, such as 3R 91331(A4) and 3R 2780(Letter), are recommended. Base type transparency (ex. Xerox 3R3117) results in better image and paper handling quality than paper backed (ex. Xerox 3R3028) or removable stripe (3R3108) ones.
• • Used paper ink must be non-flammable and should not adversely affect machine rollers. Before you load used paper, verify that the ink on the paper is dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off used paper, reducing print quality. The printed pages stack on the output support, and the output support will help the printed pages to align. Unfold the output support. Photo • Make sure not to use the inkjet photo paper with this machine. It could cause damage to the machine.
