Solving Offset Catch Tray Problems
Solving Offset Catch Tray Problems
When there is a problem with the offset catch tray, the printer control panel displays an error
code and error message. Most offset catch tray error codes indicate routine status conditions
such as a paper jam. Some error codes indicate much more serious problems that may require
the help of a service technician.
If the offset catch tray is inoperative after installation, refer to “Installation Problems” on
page 9-11 and complete the recommended procedure.
If the printer control panel displays an error message or an error code, refer to “Interpret-
ing Offset Catch Tray Error Messages” on page 9-10.
If you have an offset catch tray problem but the printer control panel does not display an
error message or error code, refer to “Correcting Miscellaneous Offset Catch Tray Prob-
lems” on page 9-14 and follow the directions for correcting that problem.
NOTE: The printer automatically recognizes an option after the option is installed. The printer driver does
not. You must enable (activate) the option in the printer driver after the option is installed.
The steps you will follow vary according to both your operating system and your installed printer
driver. Here are the general steps you will follow.
Select the driver you want to work with.
Locate the printer properties section within the printer driver.
Use the pulldown window to select the option.
Activate the option.
