How to Feed the Paper into an HP 2300 LaserJet Printer

Use the manual feed tray for special jobs.

One of the advantages of laserjet printers like the Hewlett-Packard (HP) 2300 is the availability of a manual-feed paper tray. Users might choose to feed paper into the printer manually rather than using the paper trays if they're printing odd-sized documents on legal-size paper or if they're printing on envelopes, labels or card stock.

Things You'll Need

• LaserJet 2300 printer
• Paper

Instructions

1. Pull down the manual feed tray. Load a piece of paper into the tray. Adjust the paper guides on the tray when using odd-sized documents like legal-size paper or envelopes.

2. Log onto your computer and open the document you wish to print. Click on the "File" menu and choose "Print" from the list.

3. Click the "Properties" button and then click the "Paper/Quality" tab. Click the drop-down box next to the "Source Is" option and choose "Manual Feed" from the list. The LaserJet 2300 will now pick up the paper from the manual feed tray.
