✒✒ ✒  Note
•Before using paper with holes, such as organizer sheets, you must fan
the stack of paper well to avoid paper jams and misfeeds.
•Do not use paper with perforations at the edge.
•Do not place the punched holes of organizer sheets near the actuator
(paper sensor).
•Do not use organizer sheets that are stuck together. The glue on them
might cause damage to the printer.
•Do not load different types of paper at the same time in the paper
cassette because it may cause paper jams or misfeeds.
•For correct printing, you must select the same paper size  from within
your software application as the paper in the tray.
•If your application software does not support paper size selection in its
Print menu, you can change the paper size on the printer’s control panel
under the PAPER menu. For more information, see Chapter 3.
