NOTE: Illustrations shown below are from a representative product and may differ from your Brother machine.
 

1. Pull the paper tray completely out of the machine.
          
   
             
2. Adjust the tray length if needed:
   • When using Legal or Folio size paper
     Press the release button (1) in the bottom of the paper tray and then pull out the back of the paper tray. (Legal and Folio size paper are not available in some regions.)
     
                   
   • When using Letter, A4, or smaller size paper
     If you are using Letter or A4, you do not have to extend the tray. If you are using 148 x 210 mm (5.8 x 8.3 in.) or smaller size paper, make sure the paper tray is not extended.
3. Press and slide the paper guides to fit the paper.
   Press the green release levers to slide the paper guides.
              
   
                    
4. Fan the stack of paper well.

   Overfilling the paper tray will cause paper jams.

8. Lift the support flap to prevent paper from sliding off the output tray.
