Turning Tray Switching On or Off
Situation: You want to turn tray switching on or off. Tray switching specifies whether
or not to switch to another paper tray if the current one is empty. When switching is
ON (the default value) the printer automatically looks in other trays for the right size of
paper if the current tray does not contain the paper size specified by the job. The
search sequence is the default tray, followed by the 250-sheet tray (Tray 1), the first
500-sheet tray (Tray 2), the second 500-sheet tray (Tray 3), and then the auxiliary tray.
OFF specifies no switching.

1. Press the Online key until you see OFFLINE in the display.
