Adjust the position of the paper guides.
  |

While pressing the top part of the left guide, slide it to align with the size indicator for the paper to be loaded.
|
 |
While pressing the top part of the front guide, slide it to align with the size indicator for the paper to be loaded.

Slide the guides until they click into place. If the left guide and front guide are not aligned correctly, the paper size will not correctly appear on the touch panel display. It is also necessary to adjust the guides correctly to avoid causing a paper jam, dirty prints, or making the inside of the machine dirty.

The abbreviations on the paper guides in the paper drawer indicate paper sizes as follows:
LGL: Legal
LTR: Letter

If you use paper with a logo mark, pay attention to the orientation when loading it in the paper source. Loading Preprinted Paper
When placing envelopes, pay attention to the orientation and the preparations before placing envelopes. Loading Envelopes
Each paper drawer holds up to 550 sheets of paper (21 lb bond (80 g/m2)).
If there are instructions on the paper package about which side of the paper to load, follow those instructions.
Paper may overlap when it is fed or a paper jam may occur, depending on the cut surface of the paper. Changing the paper orientation and loading it again may reduce the effect of the cut surface.
Rewrap any remaining paper in its original package, and store it in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.
If paper runs out and printing is stopped, load a new paper stack. Printing restarts after the new paper stack is loaded.
If you print on the paper which has absorbed moisture, steam may come out from the output area of the machine. This is because the moist on the paper evaporates when the high temperature is applied when a toner is fixed to the paper. It is not a malfunction. (This especially happens in low room temperature.)

Gently insert the paper drawer into the machine.

When changing the paper size and typeIf you load a different type of paper into the machine, make sure to change the settings. If you do not change the settings, the machine cannot print properly. Specifying Paper Size and Type in the Paper Drawer
When changing the paper size, change the paper size label as necessary.
