Configuring input trays
This printer allows you to configure input trays by type and size. This
allows you to load different media types and sizes in the printer’s input
trays and then request media by type or size.
When the printer is used as a standalone printer, it might be
beneficial to configure the printer as
TRAY 1 MODE=FIRST. In this
mode, if media is loaded in Tray 1 and no other tray is specified,
media will be pulled from Tray 1 regardless of the type or size of
media loaded in the tray.
When the printer is used in a network environment, it might be
beneficial to configure Tray 1 as
TRAY 1 MODE=CASSETTE. In this
mode, the tray acts as a cassette-style tray and can then be
configured for media type and size.
Note If using the duplex printing accessory when Tray 1 is in FIRST mode,
be sure that the media loaded meets the specifications for duplex
printing. (See “Supported media weights and sizes” on page 67.)
