Linking trays
• If you load the same size and type of paper or specialty media in more than one tray, the printer automatically links
the trays. This means that when one tray is empty, it feeds from the next linked tray.
For example, if you have the same size and type of paper or specialty media loaded in tray 2 and tray 4, the printer
feeds from tray 2 until it becomes empty, and then it feeds from the next linked tray—tray 4.
• If you load the same size paper or specialty media in each tray, make sure it is also all the same type to link the
trays.
Once the trays you selected are loaded with the same size and type of paper or specialty media, select the same
Paper Type setting in the Paper Menu for these sources.
• To disable tray linking, set the Paper Type or Paper Size to a unique value in each one of the trays.
