Notes:
- Load letterhead faceup with the header toward the front of the tray for one‑sided printing.
- Load letterhead facedown with the header toward the back of the tray for two‑sided printing.
- Do not slide paper into the tray.
- To avoid paper jams, make sure that the stack height is below the maximum paper fill indicator.
