b) Slide the automatic feed guides to match both sides of the paper.

c) Raise the output tray to avoid paper slipping and falling.

d) Load the paper into the automatic feeder tray print-side up.

e) Adjust the paper stop to match the paper size.

| Note: | • If the paper loaded into the automatic feeder tray at one time exceeds 150 pages, the paper will jam or will not be fed in. • When using printed paper, please place the side to be printed (the blank side) facing up. • When printing on A5 paper, it is recommended that the paper is fed in landscape orientation, which helps extend the toner cartridge life.

b) Slide the manual feed guides to match both sides of the paper.

c) Raise the output tray to avoid the paper from slipping and falling.

| Note: | • When loading paper into the manual feeder tray, the printer will automatically enable the manual feed mode. • Load the paper into the manual feeder tray print-side up. When loading, the top of the paper first enters into the manual feeder tray. • Ensure that the paper, envelope or transparency is loaded in straight and in the correct position of the manual feeder tray. Otherwise, it will result in a skewed printout or a paper jam.
