Load and Print on Thick Paper and Labels in the Manual Feed Slot

When you load a different paper size in the tray, you must change the Paper Size setting in the machine or on your computer at the same time.

  1. Open the machine's back cover (the face up output tray).

    • Load paper into the manual feed slot with the printing surface facing up.
    • Pull the paper out completely if you must reload the paper into the manual feed slot.
    • Do not put more than one sheet of paper in the manual feed slot at one time, as it may cause a jam.
    • Make sure the paper is straight and in the correct position in the manual feed slot. If it is not, the paper may not be fed correctly, resulting in a skewed printout or a paper jam.
  5. Send your print job to the machine.

  6. After the printed page comes out from the back of the machine, load the next sheet of paper in the manual feed slot. Repeat for each page that you want to print.
  7. Close the back cover (the face up output tray) until it locks in the closed position.
