The procedure for loading paper is common between Tray1 to Tray4. The following explains how to load paper into Tray1.

Tray2, Tray3, and Tray4 are available when the optional Paper Feed Unit is installed on this machine.

NOTICE

  • To prevent the machine from becoming unstable, feed paper individually into each tray. While paper is loaded into one tray, all the other trays must be closed.

    supplementary explanationAfter moving the vertical Lateral Guide, slide the lock tab (3) to lock the Lateral Guide. Whether or not the guide plate is locked can be ascertained via the lock/unlock mark.

    supplementary explanationWhen loading long paper such as A4, letter-size, or legal-size paper, pinch the vertical paper guide tab, and slide the paper guide backward to suit the paper length.

    supplementary explanationIf legal-size paper is loaded, the vertical paper guide tab protrudes from the tray base, and paper may become dusty as a result. To prevent paper from becoming dusty, purchase and mount a dust cover. For details, contact your service representative.
