BThe toner cartridges that are shipped with the printer are starter cartridges.
They are installed in exactly the same manner as the optional cartridges; the
only difference is that the starter cartridges have less toner. (The page life
expectancy is 3,000 pages, which is based on a 5% image area.)
Remove the packaging from the toner cartridge.
Remove the shipping cover from the cartridge.
Caution:

Fan the media (paper/transparencies), then tap it on a level
surface to avoid media jams or skewed printing.
Notes:
BTo optimize your printer’s performance, always use clean, unused media. 
BBe careful not to leave fingerprints on the media, which can result in a smudged
print.
BReusing media that has been fed through the printer once (for example, after
jams) can reduce the life of the consumables and paper path components.

27 Place the media in the tray under the hooks.
The height of media should not exceed the limit mark on the tray, or it may
cause a jam.
Notes:
BLoad media with the print side down. Most media has instructions
recommending the side to be printed first. 
BDo not mix different types or thicknesses of media in the media tray at one time;
this may cause a jam.
Slide the media tray completely into the slot.

the media size. You may need to adjust the page margins in the application software
to match the print area.
The following table and illustrations show the page sizes, the largest print areas, and
the margins for the media sizes supported on this printer.
