    Precautions When Loading Paper into the Paper Cassette
    CAUTION
    Be careful when handling paper.
    • Handle paper carefully not to cut your hands with the edges of the paper.
    IMPORTANT
    Be sure to align the paper guides with the width of the paper.
    • If the paper guides are too loose or too tight, this may result in misfeeds or paper jams.
    • Printouts may be askew depending on the printing environment. Properly load paper to avoid this.
    Be sure to adjust paper sizes to the documents.
    • Adjust the size of the paper loaded in the paper cassette to the documents.
    • When the paper which is loaded in the paper cassette is smaller than the documents, the output may be dirty with the toner that is placed outside of the paper.
    When using paper that has been poorly cut
    • If you use paper that has been poorly cut, multiple sheets of paper may be fed at once. In this case, fan the paper thoroughly, and then align the edges of the stack properly on a hard, flat surface.
    Do not exceed the load limit mark when loading paper.
    • Make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the line of the load limit mark. If the paper stack exceeds the load limit mark lines, this may result in misfeeds.
    When printing on envelopes
    • Load envelopes with the front side (non-glued side) facing up. You cannot print on the reverse side of envelopes.
    • Also, be sure to close the flap before loading envelopes.
