Handling and Storing Media
Handling Media
Do not use media that have been folded, creased, or heavily curled, because media jams may result.
Storing Media
The optimum environment in which to store paper media is a humidity of 40 to 45 %. Keep the 
following in mind when storing paper media:
• Moisture is not good for media. For storage, wrap the media in wrapping paper and store it in a 
comparatively dry place. Tracing paper, especially, should be put in a plastic or moisture-proof bag 
that contains desiccant.
• When the machine is not used for a long period of time, remove the media and store it 
appropriately.
Loading Media
Loading Roll Media
WARNING:Be careful not to pinch your fingers when you set the roll media in the media drawer.
Load the roll media in the Roll 1 drawer or the optional Roll 2 drawer.
When changing the media type, size, or weight, make sure to change the media settings before 
starting copying. For information about the set up procedure, refer to the section on Media Settings. 
1. Open the front doors.

5. Pinch the lever at the end of the shaft, and insert the shaft into the new roll media. Be sure the roll 
ends align with the media size guide.
6. Adjust the roll media’s orientation, and place the shaft on the shaft guide.
7. Rotate the roll media until the lead edge is gripped in the roller.
The roll media will automatically load, and then stop.
Note 
If the roll media cannot be loaded correctly because its lead edge is damaged, trim the lead edge 
before setting it in place.

do so.

8. Press the cutter button to cut the lead edge of roll media. The lead edge of the roll media is cut.

of the roll. When the cutter button is held down, the roll media feeds continuously until the cutter 
button is released. The roll media is cut when the cutter button is released.
9. Remove the piece of paper that was cut.
