Preprinted • Letterhead must be printed with heat-resistant ink
paper that will not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous
emissions when subjected to the printer's fusing
temperature for 0.1 second. Check your printer's
specification to view the fusing temperature, see
"General specifications" on page 88.
• Letterhead ink must be non-flammable and should
not adversely affect printer rollers.
• Forms and letterhead should be sealed in a
moisture-proof wrapping to prevent changes during
storage.
• Before you load preprinted paper, such as forms
and letterhead, verify that the ink on the paper is
dry. During the fusing process, wet ink can come off
preprinted paper, reducing print quality.
CHANGING THE SIZE OF THE PAPER IN THE

adjust the paper guides to extend the paper tray.
1. Adjust the paper length guide to the desired paper length. It is preset to
Letter or A4 size depending on the country.
2. After inserting paper into the tray, while pinching the paper width guide
as shown, move it toward the stack of paper until it lightly touches the

side of the stack. Do not press the guide too tightly to the edge of the
paper; the guide may bend the paper.
When you use legal-sized paper, you need to extend the length of the
tray.
3. Press and hold the green lever on the back of the tray, when you are
holding the lever, extend the tray to the corresponding position.
4. Load the paper into the tray.
5. Place the tray into the printer.
6. Set the paper size from your computer.
• Do not push the paper width guides far enough to cause the
materials to warp.
• If you do not adjust the paper width guides, it may cause paper
jams.
