LOADING PAPER
The message "ADD PAPER" or "ADD PAPER ONTO BYPASS TRAY" will appear when paper runs out during operation.
Follow the procedure below to load paper.
NOTES
G Do not use curled or folded paper. Doing so may cause a misfeed.
G For best results use paper supplied by SHARP. (See pages 2-10, 2-22.)
G When you change the paper type and size in paper tray 1, you must change the paper type and size settings.
(see pages 2-3, 2-11 to 2-13)
