Paper Handling
This section explains how to change mode for the MP tray, the paper size and type
for each paper source, and how to select the paper source and paper destinations.
MP Tray Mode
The MP tray can be used in either of two modes — Cassette or First.
The MP tray feed paper differently depending on the mode:
• Cassette Mode (default)
The MP tray acts in the same manner as other paper sources.
The printer can feed paper from any paper source you command on the
printer driver. The cassette mode provides a faster printing speed than the
first mode.
• First Mode
The MP tray automatically feeds paper placed on the MP tray overriding
another paper source that is selected on the printer driver. After all sheets in
the MP tray have been used up (approximately 100 sheets), paper will be
fed from the paper source originally selected. This mode is convenient to
feed paper of special size or type without reloading the current paper source.
However, the MP tray must be kept empty if you desire to feed paper from
the intended paper source.

Setting MP Tray Paper Size
When you use the MP tray in cassette mode, you should set the MP tray size to the
paper size that is used to format the job to print. If the sizes do not match, printing
will not be performed on the correct size paper. The default setting is Letter size for
the U.S. and Canada and A4 for other countries. For more information about the
paper sizes that you can feed from the MP tray, See “Paper Specifications”,
page 2-3.
