Linking trays
Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or multiple copies. When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds from the next linked
tray. When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any trays, the trays are automatically linked. The Paper
Size setting is automatically sensed according to the position of the paper guides in each tray except the multipurpose feeder.
The Paper Size setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set manually from the Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting
must be set for all trays from the Paper Type menu. The Paper Type menu and the Paper Size menu are both available from
the Paper Size/Type menu.
Unlinking trays
Unlinked trays have settings that are not the same as the settings of any other tray.
To unlink a tray, change the following tray settings so that they do not match the settings of any other tray:
Paper Type (for example: Plain Paper, Letterhead, Custom Type <x>)
Paper Type names describe the paper characteristics. If the name that best describes your paper is used by linked
trays, assign a different Paper Type name to the tray, such as Custom Type <x>, or define your own custom name.
Paper Size (for example: letter, A4, statement)
Load a different paper size to change the Paper Size setting for a tray automatically. Paper Size settings for the
multipurpose feeder are not automatic; they must be set manually from the Paper Size menu.
NOTICE: Do not assign a Paper Type name that does not accurately describe the type of paper loaded in the tray. The
temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified Paper Type. Paper may not be properly processed if an
inaccurate Paper Type is selected.
