The printer is shipped with a media tray (Letter paper or A4 paper) installed. Besides them, the
following media can be used with five different trays.
Each tray is designed and labeled for only paper or transparency. If you load the incorrect media type
in a tray, it may cause a jam.
NOTE
BIf you have the 2nd Cassette Feeder installed:
If you wish to use the automatic cassette-switching feature (a large print job, for
example), make sure that all trays in the printer are the same media type and size.
The transparency tray should only be inserted in the upper or middle tray slots.
