Push the tray firmly all
the way into the
machine.

If you loaded a different type of paper from the
previous paper, be sure to set the new paper type
as explained in "Setting the paper type" (page 2-
11).

If the size slide position (step 2 of page 2-2) is not set correctly after changing the paper size, or if the paper type
(page 2-11) is not set correctly, incorrect paper selection or paper misfeeding may occur.

The bypass tray can be used to feed the same paper specified for paper tray 1 or for special papers.  For paper types
that can be used in the bypass tray, see the specifications for the bypass tray in the paper tray specifications (page
2-9).
Up to 250 sheets of SHARP standard paper or up to 100 postcards can be set in the bypass tray.

When loading paper that
will extend past the end
of the tray, pull out the
tray extension to support
the paper and to allow the
paper sensors to properly
sense the paper size.

Be sure to pull the tray extension all the way out. If
the tray extension is not pulled all the way out, the
size of the paper loaded in the bypass tray may not
display correctly.

To support papers that
extend past the tray
extension, pull out the
wire extension.

Place the copy paper
face up. If the bypass
tray guides are set
wider than the copy
paper, the inside of the
machine may become
soiled, resulting in

smudges on succeeding copies. Special purpose
papers other than SHARP recommended
transparency film must be fed individually. Multiple
sheets of SHARP recommended transparency
film can be loaded in the bypass tray.

If you loaded a different type of paper from the
previous paper, be sure to set the new paper type
as explained in "Setting the paper type and paper
size in the bypass tray" (page 2-12). If you loaded
a special size of paper in the bypass tray, set the
paper size as explained in "Setting the paper type
and paper size in the bypass tray" (page 2-12).
(If you do not set a size, part or all of the image
may not print.)

● After loading the paper in the bypass tray, be sure to set the paper type and size (step 4) if these were changed.
● Do not use inkjet paper. This may cause misfeeds in the fusing unit.

When loading paper in
the bypass tray or
closing the tray, close
the paper cover as
shown.

NOTES
● Be sure to load A6R paper, A5 paper, 5-1/2" x 8-1/

2" paper, and postcards as shown in the diagram
below.

A6R paper, post cards.
A5 paper, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" paper.

● When loading plain paper other than paper

recommended for colour, SHARP standard paper,
special media other than postcards, SHARP-
recommended transparency film, or paper to be
printed on the back, the paper must be loaded one
sheet at a time. Loading more than one sheet at a
time will cause misfeeds.

● Before loading heavy paper, straighten any curling

in the paper.

● When adding paper, remove any paper remaining

in the tray, combine it with the paper to be added,
and reload as a single stack.

● Do not use paper that has already been printed on

by a plain paper fax machine or a laser printer.
This may cause printed images to become dirty.

● When printing on transparency film, be sure to

remove each sheet as it exits the machine.
Allowing sheets to stack in the output tray may
cause curling.

● Use only SHARP-recommended transparency

film. Insert the film so that the rounded corner is on
the left for horizontal loading, or on the right for
vertical loading.

● When loading multiple sheets of transparency film

in the bypass tray, fan the sheets several times
before loading.

■ Setting envelopes or postcards

When setting envelopes or postcards in the bypass tray, set them in the orientation shown below.

●Attempting to print onto both sides of envelopes or postcards may result in misfeeds or poor prints.
●Do not use pre-printed envelopes.
●Before inserting a postcard or envelope, straighten any curled edges. Curled edges may cause creases, colour

deviations, misfeeds, and poor quality images.

●Attempting to print on envelopes that have metal clasps, plastic snaps, string closures, windows, linings, self-

adhesive patches or synthetic materials may cause misfeeds, inadequate toner adherence or other trouble.

●Envelopes with embossed surfaces may cause the prints to become smudged.
●Under high humidity and temperature conditions the glue flaps on some envelopes may become sticky and be

sealed closed when printed.

●Use only envelopes which are flat and crisply folded. Curled or poorly formed envelopes may be poorly printed

or may cause misfeeds.

●Print quality is not guaranteed in the area 10 mm or 13/32" from the

edges of the envelope.

●Print quality is not guaranteed on parts of envelopes where there is a

large step-like change of thickness, such as on three-layer or four-layer
envelopes.

●Print quality is not guaranteed on envelopes having peel off flaps for

sealing the envelopes.

In some cases damage to the envelopes, colour deviations, or smudging may occur even if envelopes within the
specifications are used. This problem may be reduced by shifting the fusing unit pressure adjusting levers from
their normal pressure position to the lower pressure position. Follow the procedure on the next page. (2-7)

Loading postcards
Insert the postcard with the side to be printed on
facing up. The postcard should be oriented as
shown in the diagram.

Loading envelopes
Only the front side of envelopes can be printed.
Insert the envelope with the front side facing up.

Be sure to return the lever to the normal position when you have finished feeding envelopes. If not, inadequate
toner adherence, paper misfeeds or other trouble may occur.
