Tray Behavior

Tray Linking

Tray linking enables the automatic linking feature for trays when you load the same size and type
of print media in multiple sources. The printer automatically links the trays; when one tray is not
available for paper empty or mismatch, the printer will use the next available linked tray to feed
print media for the printing.

For example, if you have the same size and type of print media loaded in tray 2, the printer selects
print media from tray 2 until it becomes empty, and then the printer automatically feeds print
media from the next linked tray.

By linking all trays (standard and optional), you effectively create a single source with a capacity
of up to 550 sheets.

Make sure you load the same size and type of print media in each tray in order to link the trays.
Set the paper size and type for each tray.

To disable tray linking you can either choose unique paper size/type for each tray or using
operator panel to disable tray linking.

NOTE:

You can use this feature in print, copy, and fax job.

NOTE:

To prevent a paper jam, do not open tray 1 while the machine is printing from tray 2.

Substitute Size

This setting is used to determine whether the printer can substitute with another paper size when the
requested paper size is not available in any of the input trays. The Printer will substitute A4/Letter,
A5/Statement, B5/ISO B5, and Folio/Oficio. For example if A4 is requested paper size and there is
no A4 paper in any of the input source then the printer will print on Letter size paper, if available.

Substitute size set to Off means no substitution is allowed for the requested paper size. This
option is not applied for received fax printing.

NOTE:

You can use this feature in print and copy job.
