How to load envelopes and post cards

Before loading, press the corners and sides of the envelopes or post cards to make them as flat as possible.

Note

If the envelopes or post cards are ‘double-feeding,’ put one envelope in the paper tray at a time.

Put the envelopes or post cards into the paper tray with the address side down and the leading edge in first as shown in the illustration. Slide the paper side guides (1) and paper length guide (2) to fit the size of the envelopes or post cards.

If you have problems when printing on envelopes, try the following suggestions:
1	Open the envelope flap.
2	Make sure the open flap is either to the side of the envelope or to the back edge of the envelope when printing.
3	Adjust the size and margin in your application.

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

Put the photo paper into the photo paper tray and gently adjust the paper side guides to the paper.

Make sure the paper side guides touch the sides of the paper.

Note

•	Be careful that you do not push the paper in too far; it may lift at the back of the tray and cause feed problems.
•	Always make sure that the paper is not curled.

When you have finished printing photos return the photo paper tray to the normal printing position.

Press the photo paper tray release button with your left thumb and pull the photo paper tray forward until it clicks.

Removing small printouts from the machine

When the machine ejects small paper onto the output paper tray you may not be able to reach it. Make sure printing has finished, and then pull the tray completely out of the machine.
