∗
The number of trays supported depends on each model.
∗
When printing with the multi bypass tray, the printer board cannot
recognize the set paper direction, and therefore it regards that the
short side of paper would be set (vertical transport direction) to
make data.
C. Tray selection
Paper handling is controlled on the copier side. The printer board
sends the Video I/F command to the digital copier according to the
computer direction of the tray.
(7) Print reference
This machine employs the center reference system.
Since the digital copier is not equipped with the paper size detection,
format is made not by the actual paper size but by the paper size
specified by the computer, and center distribution is made.
