Printing guide
Get the most from the printer by properly loading the trays and properly setting the types and sizes of media.
Loading the 250 and 550‑sheet tray
The printer has one 250-sheet tray (Tray 1) with an integrated manual feeder. The 250-sheet tray, the 650-sheet duo tray, and
the 550-sheet tray support the same paper sizes and types and are loaded in the same way.
CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each tray separately. Keep all trays
closed until needed.
1Pull out the tray completely.
Note: Do not remove trays while a job is printing or while Busy appears on the display. Doing so may cause a jam.
2If the paper is longer than letter‑size paper, then push the length guide tab at the back of the tray to extend it.

Loading the 650‑sheet duo tray
The 650‑sheet duo tray (Tray 2) consists of a 550‑sheet tray and an integrated 100‑sheet multipurpose feeder. The tray is loaded
in the same way as the 250‑sheet tray and the optional 550‑sheet tray, and supports the same paper types and sizes. The only
differences are the look of the guide tabs and the location of the paper size indicators.
CAUTION—POTENTIAL INJURY: To reduce the risk of equipment instability, load each tray separately. Keep all other trays
closed until needed.
