Configuring input trays
The printer allows you to configure input trays by type and size. You can load different media
in the printer’s input trays and then request media by type or size using the control panel.
Note
If you have used other HP LaserJet printer models, you might be accustomed to configuring
Tray 1 to first mode or cassette mode. On HP Color LaserJet 4650 series printers, setting
Tray 1 size and type to ANY SIZE is equivalent to first mode. Setting size or type for Tray 1
to a setting other than ANY SIZE is equivalent to cassette mode.
Note
If you are duplex printing, be sure that the media loaded meets the specifications for duplex
printing. (See
Supported media weights and sizes.)
Note
The instructions below are to configure the trays at the printer control panel. You can also
configure the trays from your computer by accessing the embedded Web server. See
Using
the embedded Web server.
Configuring trays when the printer gives a prompt
In the following situations, the printer automatically prompts you to configure the tray for type
and size:
● when you load paper into the tray
● when you specify a particular tray or media type for a print job through the printer driver
or a software application and the tray is not configured to match the print job’s settings
The control panel displays this message: LOAD TRAY XX: [TYPE] [SIZE], To change type
press
. The instructions below explain how to configure the tray after the prompt appears.
Note
The prompt does not appear if you are printing from Tray 1 and if Tray 1 is configured for
ANY SIZE and ANY TYPE.
