Using the manual feeder

The standard 250-sheet tray has an integrated manual feeder that can be used to print on different types of paper one sheet at a time.

  1. Load a sheet of paper into the manual feeder.

    Note: There are different ways for loading letterhead depending on the mode of printing.

    One-sided printing using a letterhead

    Two-sided printing using a letter-head

    Load the letterhead into the manual feeder facedown for one-sided printing.
    Load the letterhead into manual feeder faceup for two-sided (duplex) printing.

  2. Feed paper into the manual feeder only to the point where its leading edge can contact the paper guides.

    Note: To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality media designed for laser printers.
  3. Adjust the paper guides to the paper width.

    Warning—Potential Damage: Do not force the paper into the feeder. Forcing the paper causes jams.
