Operation

  1. Pull out the paper tray

    Gently pull the tray out until it stops.
    To load paper, go to step 3.

    Keep holding the handle until the lock is released.
  2. Adjust guide plates A and B by squeezing their lock levers and sliding them to match the longitudinal and transversal dimensions of the paper to be loaded

    (1) Squeeze the lock knob on guide plate A and slide to the desired paper size.
    (2) Squeeze the lock knob on guide plate B and slide to the desired paper size.
    If slid to a standard paper size, guide plate B will lock automatically.
    (3) For a non-standard paper size, after sliding guide plate B to the desired size, press the lock button (C).

    A non-standard size of paper can only be loaded in tray 4. A non-standard size of paper cannot be loaded in tray 3.

    Fan the paper well before loading it. If the paper is not fanned, multiple sheets may feed at once and cause a misfeed.
