The multipurpose tray is also especially useful if you want to print on a 

single sheet of letterhead or colored media without changing the 

media in the media cassettes. 

Preventing Media Jams 

There are several things you can do to reduce the occurrence of 

media jams:

n

Use paper, envelopes, labels, postcards, transparencies that 

match the printer specifications. (See the “Consumable Supplies” 

section of appendix B, “Technical Specifications,” in the 

Refer-

ence

, for more complete information.)

n

Make sure the media is not folded or wrinkled.

n

Do not overfill the multipurpose tray or the cassettes. The multi-

purpose tray holds about 150 sheets of 20 lb (75 g/m

paper, 5 transparencies, 10 envelopes, 10 sheets of letterhead or 

thick paper, or 10 labels; the universal cassette holds up to 250 

sheets of paper, and the 500-sheet cassette holds up to 500 

sheets of paper.

n

If you have problems with double feeding, remove the media from 

the tray or cassette and fan the edges. The sheets may be stick-

ing together.

Note: 

Do not fan transparencies since this causes static.

n

Store print media away from moisture and humidity. The recom-

mended relative humidity is 15%-85% with no condensation.
