FAQs & Troubleshooting

I cannot feed the paper from the Photo Paper Tray.

Please make sure that you are using the photo paper tray correctly following the steps below:


Step1 : Loading photo paper


In Canada the photo bypass tray is called the photo paper tray.



Use the photo bypass tray, which has been assembled on the top of the output paper tray cover, to print on photo 4" x 6" and photo L 3.5" x 5" size paper. When you use the photo bypass tray, you do not have to take out the paper that is in the tray beneath it.



  1. Press the photo bypass tray release button with your left thumb and push the photo bypass tray backward until it clicks into the photo printing position.

  2. Press and slide the paper side guides (1) and paper length guide (2) to fit the paper size.

    • Always make sure that the paper is not curled.
