7 From the printer control panel, set the paper size and type in the Paper menu to match the paper loaded in the

Linking and unlinking trays
When the paper size and paper type for any trays are the same, the printer will link those trays. When one linked tray
becomes empty, paper will feed from the next linked tray. We recommend giving all unique paper, such as letterhead
and different colored plain papers, a different custom type name so that the trays they are in will not automatically
link.
Linking and unlinking trays
