Prepare so the paper is ejected smoothly.
When a stand is attached to the printer
Check that the paper basket attached to the stand
is open.
Note:
Close the paper basket before printing banners or
other documents of sizes that will not fit in the
paper basket. Before the paper ejected from the
printer touches the floor, we suggest that you take it
in both hands close to the paper eject slot and
continue to lightly support it until printing is
complete.
When a stand is not attached to the printer
Make a flat area in front of the paper eject slot so
that ejected paper does not catch on anything.
Note:
When printing long items, such as banners, we
suggest that before the paper ejected from the
printer touches the floor, that you take it in both
hands close to the paper eject slot and continue to
lightly support it until printing is complete.
