Follow these guidelines when using special papers.
● Use SHARP recommended transparency film and label sheets. Using other 

● There are many varieties of special paper available on the market, and 

● Before using other than SHARP recommended paper, make a test copy to 

Make sure that the paper is not torn, is free of dust, and has no wrinkles 
or curled edges.

• Do not load paper above the maximum height line (

). 

Exceeding the line will cause a paper misfeed.

• If the paper is not fanned, double-feeds or misfeeds may occur.
• Make sure the stack of paper is straight before loading it. When 

adding paper, take the remaining paper out and combine it into a 
single stack with the new paper.

• Make sure that all the paper in the stack is the same size and type.
• When loading paper, ensure that there is no space between the 

paper and the guide, and make sure that the guide is not set too 
narrow and causes the paper to bend. Incorrect loading will cause the 
paper to skew or misfeed.

• If you loaded a paper size that is different from the previously loaded 

paper size, change the paper size setting as explained in 
"CHANGING A TRAY'S PAPER SIZE SETTING" (p.19)

• When not using the machine for an extended period, remove all 

paper from the paper tray and store it in a dry place. If paper is left in 
the machine for an extended period, the paper will absorb moisture 
from the air, resulting in paper jams.

The bypass tray can be used to feed standard paper, transparency film, labels, 
envelopes, and other special purpose paper.

Up to 50 sheets of standard copy paper can be inserted in the bypass tray. (Capacity 
will vary depending on the type of paper loaded.)
Be sure to place envelopes horizontally as shown in the following diagram.

• When loading envelopes, make sure that they are straight and flat and do not have 

loosely glued construction flaps (not the closure flap).

• Special papers such as SHARP recommended transparency film, labels, and 

envelopes must be fed one sheet at a time through the bypass tray.

• When adding paper, first remove any paper remaining in the tray, combine it with 

the paper to be added and then reload as a single stack. The paper to be added 
must be the same size and type as the paper already in the tray.

• Do not use paper that is smaller than the original. This may cause smudges or 

unclean images.

• Do not use paper that has already been printed on by a laser printer or plain paper 

fax machine. This may cause smudges or unclean images. 

Do not use the following envelopes, as misfeeds will occur.
• Envelopes with metal tabs, clasps, strings, holes, or windows.
• Envelopes with rough fibers, carbon paper, or glossy surfaces.
• Envelopes with two or more flaps.
• Envelopes with tape, film, or paper attached to the flap.
• Envelopes with a fold in the flap.
• Envelopes with glue on the flap to be moistened for sealing.
• Envelopes with labels or stamps.
• Envelopes that are slightly inflated with air.
• Envelopes with glue protruding from the seal area.
• Envelopes with part of the seal area peeled off.
• Be sure to select com9, com10, DL, C5 or Monarch in the paper size setting of the 

printer driver. (For detailed information on the printer driver, refer to the online 
manual.)
