STATUS AND PRINT TASKS
job and to use groups of trays within a job as if they were only
one tray.
Based on messages from the LPS, you load the correct stock into
the feeder trays and tell the LPS which stock is in which tray
(refer to the “Tray loading and clusters” section later in this
chapter). The LPS then selects the stock as required by the print
job, selecting a feeder tray for each page by checking the cluster
name and paper size associated with the page.
You can display the current clusters, override the preferred trays
recommended by the cluster, or choose a specific cluster or tray
to be used for feeding paper for a job. For additional
information on clusters, refer to the 4635 LPS Operations
Reference.
