Tray Is Empty

The tray specified on the front panel is empty. The printer can still print from the other trays. On the front panel of the printer, press the i button to view information about the front panel message.

To load paper in the tray:

  1. Pull the specified tray completely out of the printer.

    Graphic illustrates this step.

  2. Fan the paper to release sheets that may be stuck together.

    Graphic illustrates this step.

  3. Insert a stack of paper in the tray. Place the side to be printed faceup with the top of the paper entering the printer first. For two-sided printing, place the side to be printed facedown with the bottom of the paper entering the printer first. For additional information about loading paper, go to Reference/Printing on the User Documentation CD-ROM.

    Graphic illustrates this step.

    Note:
     Observe the fill lines on the side of the tray. Do not load paper above the paper fill line; it may cause the printer to jam. Do not load transparencies above the transparency fill line.
