Hints for Handling the Paper Source
This printer offers two paper sources to load printing paper; the Rear Tray (A) and the Front Tray (B).
Here are some hints for handling these paper sources according to how you are using them.
When Printing for the First Time
At purchase, the printer is set to feed from the Rear Tray.
If you are printing without changing paper source settings, load paper in the Rear Tray.
Changing the Paper Source
In the printer driver, select a Paper Source. For details on printer driver settings, see “Printing
with Windows” on page 17 or “Printing with Macintosh” on page 18.
Note
z Some types and sizes of paper are not loadable in the Front Tray and requires the use of the Rear Tray.
See “Paper Handling” on page 5. For details on loading paper, see “Loading Paper” on page 10.
z Printer driver settings may be required depending on the usage. For details on printer driver settings,
refer to the PC Printing Guide on-screen manual.
Note
For details on loading paper, see “Loading Paper in the Rear Tray” on page 10.
