Preparation for Usage
Loading Paper
Before Loading Paper
Loading Paper into Cassette 1, 2
2-2
Load paper in the 2 cassettes, the MP tray, and/or the optional paper feeder or 3000 sheet paper
feeder.
When you open a new package of paper, fan through the sheets to separate them slightly prior to
loading as described below.
1 Bend the stack of paper so that the
middle of the paper lifts upwards.
2 Gripping both ends of the paper, push
inward to cause the stack of paper to
fluff up.
3 Introduce air into the stack of paper by
alternately raising and lowering your left
and right hands.
4 Finally, align the edges of the paper
using a flat surface such as a
countertop.
If the paper is curled or folded, straighten it before loading. Overloading may cause paper jams.
IMPORTANT: If you copy onto used paper (paper already used for copying), do not use paper that
is stapled or clipped together. This may damage the machine or cause poor image quality.
If output paper curls or does not line up properly, try
flipping over the paper loaded into the cassette.
Avoid exposing opened paper to high temperatures
and high humidity as dampness may cause copying
problems. Seal any remaining paper after loading the
MP tray or a cassette in its original package. If the
machine will not be used for a prolonged period,
protect all paper from humidity by removing from the
cassettes and sealing in the original package.
Cassettes 1 and 2 support standard, recycled, and colored paper. 500 sheets of standard paper less
than 11 × 8 1/2" or A4 in size (80 g/m 2 ), or 250 sheets of standard paper greater than 8 1/2 ×14" or B4
size (80 g/m 2 ) may be loaded into Cassette 1. 500 sheets of standard paper (80 g/m 2 ) may be
loaded into Cassette 2.
Supported paper sizes are 11 × 17", 8 1/2 ×14", 11×81/2", 8 1/2 ×11", 51/2 ×81/2", 8 1/2 ×13",
8 1/2 ×131/2", A3, B4, A4, A4R, B5, B5R, A5R, Folio, 8K, 16K and 16KR.
Load paper into the optional paper feeder (Cassettes 3 and 4) in the same manner.
IMPORTANT: When making color copies, use special color paper for best results.
Do not use inkjet printer paper or paper with special surface coatings. (They may cause a failure,
such as a paper jam.)
After loading paper, be sure to specify the type and size of the paper loaded in the cassettes on the
operation panel. For further details, refer to Specifying Paper Size on page 2-7 and Specifying the
Paper Type on page 2-8.
