Configuring Input Trays
This printer allows you to configure input trays by type and size. This
allows you to load different media types and sizes in the printer’s input
trays and then request media by type or size.
●
When the printer is used as a standalone printer, it might be
beneficial to configure the printer as TRAY 1 MODE=FIRST. In
this mode, if media is loaded in Tray 1 and no other tray is
specified, media will be pulled from Tray 1 regardless of the type
or size of media loaded in the tray.
●
When the printer is used in a network environment, it might be
beneficial to configure Tray 1 as TRAY 1 MODE=CASSETTE. In
this mode, the tray acts as a cassette-style tray and can then be
configured for media type and size.
Note
When Tray 1 is in FIRST mode, be sure that the media loaded meets
the specifications for duplex printing. (See the supported media weights
and sizes section earlier in this chapter.)
