Solution

Be careful of the following points when handling the manual feed slot or paper cassette.

IMPORTANT

a. Be sure to turn the printer ON once when loading paper in the paper cassette for the first time after installing the paper feeder.

b. When any paper is in the manual feed slot, you cannot feed paper from the paper cassette. If you are printing from the paper cassette, remove any paper loaded in the manual feed slot.

c. Do not pull out the paper cassette while the printer is printing. This may result in paper jams or damage to the printer.

d. Do not touch the paper in the manual feed slot or pull it out during printing. This may result in a faulty operation.

e. Refill the paper cassette after all the loaded paper runs out. If the cassette is refilled when paper still remains in the cassette, it may result in misfeeds.

f. Do not load paper in the manual feed slot during printing from the paper cassette. This may result in multiple sheets of paper fed at once or paper jams.

g. Do not touch the black rubber pad (A) in the paper cassette. This may result in misfeeds.

h. Make sure that the printer is not operating and the

(Ready) indicator is on when loading paper in the manual feed slot. When printing multiple copies or multiple pages from the manual feed slot, make sure that the printer is not operating and the

(Message) indicator is on before loading the second and subsequent paper. If paper is loaded in the manual feed slot while the printer is operating such as when the printer is printing or immediately after outputting paper, the loaded paper may be output without being printed, or this may result in paper jams.

i. If you are printing from Cassette 2, make sure that Cassette 1 is set before printing. If you print from Cassette 2 when Cassette 1 is not set, this will cause paper jams.
