●
Always use paper that conforms to the printer specifications. For more information, see Paper
specifications on page 167.
●
Load only one type of paper at a time into a tray or automatic document feeder (ADF).
●
When loading the trays and ADF, make sure the paper is loaded correctly. For more information,
see Load paper on page 16 or Load an original in the automatic document feeder (ADF)
on page 15.
●

paper in the trays or ADF:

Multipart forms
◦
Media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled
◦
Media with cutouts or perforations
◦
Media that is heavily textured, embossed, or does not accept ink well
