Dell 3000cn Color Laser Printer - Manual (Page 69)

Load only one size and type of print media during a single print job.
To achieve the best possible print quality, use only high-quality print media that is designed for use in laser printers.
For more guidelines on print media, see " Print Media Guidelines ."
Do not add or remove print media when there is still print media in the multipurpose feeder or when the printer is
printing from the multipurpose feeder. This may result in a paper jam.
Print media should be loaded with the recommended print side up and the top of the print media going into the
multipurpose feeder first.
Do not place objects on the multipurpose feeder. Also, avoid pressing down or applying excessive force on it.
Do not remove any tray while a job is printing from the multipurpose feeder or Printing is displayed on the operator
panel. This may result in a paper jam.
The icons on the multipurpose feeder identify how to load the multipurpose feeder with paper, and how to turn an envelope
for printing.
Linking Trays
Tray linking allows you to load the same size and type of print media in multiple sources. The printer automatically links the
source/trays and will use the first tray until it runs out, then switch to the linked tray.
If you load the same size print media in each tray, make sure the print media is the same type in order to link the trays.
When the selected trays are loaded with the same size and type of print media, select the Paper Size and Paper Type
settings in the Tray Settings for each source.
To disable tray linking, set the Paper Size and Paper Type to a unique value in each one of the trays. If all trays do not
have the same type of print media when linked, you could mistakenly print a job on the wrong paper type.
