Setting the tray lock

This feature is only available if Tray 2 is installed in your printer and you have a computer that
is running Windows. If the printer is on a network and you set tray lock, you will be setting it for
all users of the printer, including Mac OS users.

Use the tray lock to protect special media such as letterhead or preprinted paper from
accidental use. If the printer runs out of paper while printing a document, it will not use paper
from a locked tray to complete the print job.

except plain paper (make sure that the printer driver is set up to do this).
