Printing on Custom Paper Sizes (Non-Standard Sizes)
This section describes how to print to custom paper sizes.
Loading Custom Paper Sizes
Custom paper sizes can be loaded into either the multi-purpose tray or the manual 
feed tray. If you are printing continuously, load paper in the multi-purpose tray.
If you are printing a single sheet of paper that is different from the paper already 
loaded in the multi-purpose tray, load the paper in the manual feed tray.
You can load custom paper sizes of width 76.2 mm to 215.9 mm and length 
127.0 mm to 355.6 mm.
IMPORTANT
•When you are printing from the multi-purpose tray, make sure that there is no paper in 
the manual feed tray. If there is any paper in the manual feed tray, paper will feed from the 
manual feed tray because manual feed tray has priority over the multi-purpose tray.
•Do not load paper into the manual feed tray while the printer is printing from the 
multi-purpose tray. The paper loaded in the manual feed tray will feed into the printer, 
causing overlapping paper feeds and paper jams.
•Do not load paper that has jagged edges, wrinkles, or that is extremely curly. Doing so 
can cause paper jams and printer faults.
•Refer to Usable Paper, on p. 2-2 for more details on the paper that can be used.
Loading Custom Paper into the Multi-Purpose Tray
Use the following procedure to load custom paper into the multi-purpose tray.
Always load paper lengthways into the multi-purpose tray.

IMPORTANT
•Do not touch or pull paper out of the multi-purpose tray during printing. Doing so may 
cause the printer to malfunction.
•If you are refilling the multi-purpose tray when there is still paper in the tray, take out the 
remaining paper and align it properly with the new paper before loading it into the tray.
•Use the paper capacity for each type of paper as a guide to the number of sheets of 
paper that can be printed continuously.

3Gently load the paper with the printing side facing up until it 
touches the back of the tray.
Make sure that the paper passes under the paper limit guides.
CAUTION
When loading paper, take care not to cut your hands with the edges of the 
paper.
IMPORTANT
•The number of sheets that can be loaded in the multi-purpose tray is as follows. 
Check that there is sufficient clear space between the paper limit guides and the 
paper. If there is no free space, slightly reduce the number of envelopes.
-Plain Paper :Approx. 150 sheets (64 g/m
2)
-Heavy Paper :Approx. 60 sheets (128 g/m2)
•If you use paper that has been poorly cut, the paper may have a tendency to 
double-feed. In this case, thoroughly line up the edges of the paper on a flat 
surface before loading it.
•Load the paper so that it is straight.
•If the rear edge of the paper stack is not properly aligned, it may result in misfeeds 
or paper jams.
Paper Limit Guide
Thoroughly fan in small batches. Stand the paper on a flat 
surface and gently tap it a few 
times to align the edges.

•If the paper is curled or folded at the corners, flatten it out before loading.
NOTE
To print on letterhead paper or paper with a logo already printed on it, load the 
paper so that the printed side is facing up and the top of the paper is at the far end.
4Slide the paper guides to fit both sides of the stack.

Always make sure the paper guides match the width of the paper. If the paper 
guides are too loose or too tight, the paper will not feed properly and this will cause 
paper jams.

Loading Custom Paper into the Manual Feed Tray
Use the following procedure to load custom paper into the manual feed tray.
Always load custom paper lengthways into the manual feed tray.
IMPORTANT
•You can only load a single sheet of paper 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 paper out of the manual feed tray during printing. Doing so may 
cause the printer to malfunction.
