Standard Trays and Special Media Trays
The Lexmark T520, T522 paper feeding mechanism uses advanced technology that enhances
feeding reliability. The standard Lexmark T520, T522 tray, which holds 250 or 500 sheets of 20 lb
xerographic paper, reliably feeds all media tested according to the guidelines specified under
Dimensions on page 7.
For those difficult-to-print sizes, such as 3-inch x 5-inch index cards, Lexmark offers a variety of
special media trays and drawers.
Note: Optional 250-sheet Universally Adjustable Trays can be used to print forms with a
minimum length of 5 inches using a T520, when installed either in the integral tray
location or in a 250-sheet drawer under a 250-sheet integral tray. Optional
250-sheet Universally Adjustable Trays support forms with a minimum length of
7 inches on a T522. Optional 400-sheet Universally Adjustable Trays support forms
with a minimum length of 7 inches on both the T520 and T522.
