Customizing tray 1 operation

The printer can be set to print from tray 1 if it is loaded, or to print only from tray 1 if the type of media
that is loaded is specifically requested. See

Paper Handling menu

.

Setting

Explanation

TRAY 1 TYPE=ANY

TRAY 1 SIZE=ANY

The printer usually pulls media from tray 1 first unless it is empty or closed. If
you do not keep media in tray 1 all the time, or if you use tray 1 only to manually
feed media, keep the default setting of TRAY 1 TYPE=ANY and TRAY 1
SIZE=ANY
on the Paper Handling menu.

TRAY 1 TYPE= or TRAY 1 SIZE= a type
other than ANY

The printer treats tray 1 like the other trays. Instead of looking for media in tray 1
first, the printer pulls media from the tray that matches type and size settings
that are selected in the software.

In the printer driver, you can select media from any tray (including tray 1) by
type, size, or source. To print by type and size of paper, see

Controlling print jobs

.

You can also determine whether the printer shows a prompt to ask if it can pull media from tray 1 if it
cannot find the type and size that you requested in another tray. You can set the printer to always
prompt you before pulling from tray 1 or only prompt you if tray 1 is empty. Set the USE
REQUESTED TRAY
setting on the System Setup submenu of the Configure Device menu.
