NOTE If printing on special media, such as envelopes, use Tray 1. See Printing envelopes from Tray 1 for more information.

Raise the output bin extension.
-
Slide out the tray extender and, if necessary, open the additional tray extender.
-
Slide the width guides slightly wider than the print media.
-
Place print media into the tray with the side to be printed up, and the top, short edge in first.
NOTE If you are printing on two sides, see 2-sided (duplex) printing for loading instructions.
-
Slide the paper width guides inward until they lightly touch the print media stack on both sides without bending it. Make sure the print media fits under the tabs on the width guides.
CAUTION Wait for the printer to finish printing before closing Tray 1 (optional). Closing the tray before the printer finishes can cause jams.
-
If you are printing on special media, such as labels, envelopes, or heavy or light paper, open the lower rear door (rear output bin) at the back of the printer. Extend the paper extension tray.
