first for proper alignment of the Paper
Tray. The alignment of the Paper Tray and
paper to the printer is crucial. It may be
necessary to use a leveling device to locate
the Paper Tray properly.

there is adequate space between it and the
printer for the amount of paper to be used.
(Fig. 2).
3. Mark the drill location on the mounting
surface (Fig. 3). Be mindful as to what is
on the other side of the mounting
surface. Use a 3/16” drill bit.

the paper stack or box of paper.
