The media loading procedure is the same for both the internal paper tray and paper trays of the paper module.
The internal paper tray can hold up to 1000 sheets, 80 g/m² (22 lb bond).
Each paper module can hold up to 4000 sheets, 80 g/m² (22 lb bond): 1000 sheets per tray in the two upper trays and 2000 sheets in the lower tray. The paper trays feed the media face down.

There is no sensor in the paper trays that can detect the media. After you open and close a paper tray, the printer does not change the media settings.
CAUTION
The lifter inside the paper trays rises and descends automatically. When you load paper, be careful not to get your fingers caught. This can cause personal injury.
When you handle paper, take care not to cut your hands at the edges of the paper.
IMPORTANT
Before you lift the inside lifter of the paper tray, for example, because you dropped something, first turn OFF the main power switch. Otherwise, this can cause a malfunction or machine damage.
Do not hit to the left-hand paper guide when you load the media. This can cause a malfunction or machine damage.
IMPORTANT
Never place paper or other objects in the empty parts of a paper tray. This can cause a paper jam.
Make sure you follow the instructions carefully. When you do not load the media correctly, a paper jam, dirty machine parts, or poor print quality can occur.
Check and prepare the media. (Check and prepare media before loading)
Awaken the printer from sleep mode if applicable.

When a paper jam occurs or you notice poor image quality, turn over the media stack and reload the media stack. Do not reload textured, single-sided coated, or already printed paper to avoid a next paper jam. Take a new stack for these media.
Tightly rewrap the remaining media in the original package, and store the package in a dry place, away from direct sunlight or high temperatures.
