different paper feeding method than usual.

on the right side of the printer, load the sheet so that the near edge is aligned with the groove (b)
at the far end of the platen.

After a menu for selection of the paper size is shown on the Display Screen, press ▲ or ▼ to
select the paper size, and then press the OK button.
