Tray Chaining
If you add the optional 500 sheet lower cassette and feeder and use
two cassettes, you can “chain” the trays. This means when the first
cassette empties, the printer automatically switches to the second
cassette to pull media.
When you decide to chain trays, keep the following in mind:
• Chaining only works between the standard paper cassette
and the optional 500 sheet lower cassette with the feeder.
(You cannot chain using the fold down tray.)
• Both cassettes must contain the same size media.
• You can access tray chaining through the printer’s front
panel (see the next section, “Selecting Tray Chaining,” for
details) or through some applications if they offer that
feature.
• Make sure both trays are inserted properly. If not, tray
chaining will be disabled.
Selecting Tray Chaining
Use the following procedure to select tray chaining from the front
panel.
1. Press the Tray Select key. If auto tray switch does not appear
in the display window, continue pressing the Tray Select key
until auto tray switch appears in the display window.
2. Press the On Line key to put the printer back on line.
Printing Transparencies
Always use the fold down tray when printing transparencies. Also,
keep the following in mind:
• Only use laser quality transparencies which can handle a
temperature of 392˚ F (200˚ C).
