When the printer is out of paper, it goes off line so you can reload paper in the tray.
To load a stack of paper in
the printer's paper tray, fan the paper, open the paper cover,
adjust the paper guides for the proper width, and insert the
paper into the tray. Then close the cover.
Once you have loaded paper, put the printer back on line by
pressing the On Line button.
By default, the printer is set up to expect letter-size paper to be loaded in both the standard tray and optional lower paper cassette. If you load paper of a different size, you need to use the control panel to update the printer for the paper size loaded in the tray. This cannot be done from your software.
The printer stops after printing the single sheet. If you want to print additional pages, load another sheet and press the Manual button. Repeat the above procedure for each sheet you need to load manually.
Once you are finished manually printing sheets, replace the paper in the paper tray and close the cover. To take the printer out of manual feed, either use your software or the control panel, depending on how you initially selected manual feed.
