—

Multipart forms

Media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled

—

Media with cutouts or perforations

—

Media that is heavily textured, embossed, or does not accept ink well

Work with trays

By default, the printer draws paper from Tray 1. If Tray 1 is empty and Tray 2 is installed and contains paper,

the printer draws paper from Tray 2.
You can change the behaviors using the following features:

●

Default Tray: Set the default tray from which the printer draws paper first when paper of the same size

is loaded in both Tray 1 and Tray 2.

●

Tray Lock: Lock a tray to prevent it from accidental use; for example, when you have loaded special

paper (such as letterhead or preprinted paper).
The printer will not use a locked tray even when the other tray is empty.

NOTE:

For better experience, load only one type of paper in a tray.

NOTE:

Tray 2 supports only plain paper.

To achieve this

Follow these steps

Have paper loaded in both trays and use paper from one tray if

the other tray is empty.

●

Load paper in both trays. For more information, see

Load

paper

.

●

Turn off tray lock.

Have paper loaded in both trays and use paper from one of the

trays first.

●

Load paper of the same size in both trays.

●

Set the desired tray as the default tray.

Be able to choose from plain paper and another paper type that

you use occasionally.

NOTE:

For better experience, load only one type of paper in a

tray.

●

Load special paper in main input tray and plain paper in Tray

2.

●

Lock the main input tray and set Tray 2 as the default tray.
