    Paper Does Not Feed  from the Paper Source 
    Specified in the Printer Driver
    Too much paper loaded. Make sure that the paper stack does not exceed the paper load limit. However, 
    proper feeding of paper may not be possible at this maximum capacity 
    depending on the type of paper or environmental conditions (either very high or 
    low temperature and humidity).
    In such cases, reduce the sheets of paper you load at a time to around half of 
    the paper load limit.
    For details on loading paper, see “Loading Paper” on page 26.
    Foreign object in the Rear Tray or 
    Cassette. Make sure that there are no foreign objects in the Rear Tray or Cassette.
    Envelopes not prepared or loaded 
    properly. When printing on envelopes, load them in the machine in portrait orientation. If 
    the envelopes are placed in landscape orientation, they will not feed properly.
    For details on loading envelopes, see “Loading Envelopes” on page 30.
    Inner Cover is not completely closed. Close the Inner Cover completely. Paper does not feed properly if the Inner  Cover is even slightly open.
    CauseAction
    The paper source is specified in the 
    data created by an application 
    software.When the paper source setting is inconsistent between an application program 
    and the printer driver, the application software setting takes precedence.
    Change the application software setting corresponding to the printer driver 
    setting, or click 
    Print Options on the Page Setup  sheet in the printer driver and 
    select  Disable the paper source setting of the application software  on the 
    Print Options  screen.
    For the print option setting, refer to the  PC Printing Guide on-screen manual.
