Note• You can adjust the strength of suction holding paper against the Platen when the Release Lever is up. If it is difficultto load paper, press the ▲ or ▼ button on the Control Panel to adjust the strength. Set suction stronger by pressingthe ▲ button or weaker with the ▼ button. Three settings are available.However, even if you increase the suction, it may not be sufficient to hold some types of paper against the Platenwell. In this case, use your hand to load the paper.• Sheets are held in place by suction through holes on the Platen. Although the suction may produce a noise whenpaper is loaded in some positions, it does not indicate a problem. If the noise is distracting, try moving the paperover slightly to the left or right (up to 1 mm [0.039 in]) while keeping it parallel to the Paper Alignment Line.• The suction remains on for about 30 seconds during loading. If you cannot finish loading a sheet during this time,pull the sheet away and reinsert it to start the suction again.4 Lower the Release Lever and close the Top Cover.• If a print job was receivedPressing the OK button will advance the paper, and then printing will begin.• If no print job was receivedA menu for selection of the type of paper is shown on the Display Screen.Press ▲ or ▼ to select the type of paper, and then press the OK button.The printer now starts feeding the paper.Note• For details on types of paper to select, see the Paper Reference Guide.
