Printing on Index Card
This section describes how to print on index cards.
Loading Index Cards
You can only load index cards in the manual feed tray.
Loading Index Card into the Manual Feed Tray
Use the following procedure to load an index card into the manual feed tray.
Always load index cards lengthways into the manual feed tray.
IMPORTANT
•You can only load a single sheet of index card in the manual feed tray.
•You cannot print from the manual feed tray if the printer settings are set to multiple copies 
or multiple pages. If you start a print job set for multiple copies or multiple pages, the 
second and subsequent sheets will feed from the multi-purpose tray regardless of the 
paper size and paper type.
•Do not touch or pull the index card out of the manual feed tray during printing. Doing so 
may cause the printer to malfunction.
1Push the side paper guides out a little wider than the actual 
width of the paper.

the paper.
IMPORTANT
•If the index card is warped, make sure you fix the warp before loading the card.
•Load the index card so that it is straight.
•If the rear edge of the index card is not properly aligned, it may result in misfeeds or 
paper jams.
•If the leading edge of the index card is curled or folded at the corners, flatten it out 
before loading.
