Note: If you are loading A4- or legal-size paper, squeeze the lever and pull to extend the tray. It is unnecessary
to extend the tray for paper sizes shorter in length than A4 or legal, such as letter-size paper. When you pull the
extension out, the first stop accommodates A4-size paper. When the extension is fully out, it accommodates
legal-size paper.

Using the automatic paper type sensor
The printer is equipped with an automatic paper type sensing device. The Paper Type Sensor automatically detects
the type of paper that has been loaded into the printer and adjusts the settings for you. For example, if you want to
print a photo, load photo paper into the printer. The printer detects the type of paper and automatically adjusts the
settings to give you optimum photo-printing results.

You can load Tray 2 with letter-, A4-, or legal-size paper. You can load plain paper, photo or glossy paper, heavyweight
matte paper, transparencies, and card stock in these sizes only.
Note: Do not load any other paper sizes or types into Tray 2. For small paper sizes, use the small media feeder in Tray
1.
