Printer Features
Your printer has many special features that enable you to achieve the results you need for
your specific print job. Features vary according to the options installed on your printer.
This section will help you become familiar with your printer's features and capabilities.
Media Handling
Your printer has several media input sources and output destinations as described below.
Input Sources
■
The standard
Multi-Sheet Bypass Feeder (MBF)
holds up to 100 sheets of standard
75 g/m
2
(20 lb. bond) paper (up to 50 transparency sheets or a smaller number of
sheets of special media).
■
Tray 1
is the standard input tray that holds up to 550 sheets of 75 g/m
2
(20 lb. bond)
paper or 250 standard or 200 premium transparencies.
■
Trays 2-5
are the optional input trays installed below Tray 1. They hold up to
550 sheets of 75 g/m
2
(20 lb. bond) paper. The capacity of these trays varies based on
the thickness of the paper. Transparencies and glossy paper are not supported from
these trays.
Trays 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 all have paper-size sensing, low-paper sensing, and tray-empty
sensing. Paper levels are indicated on a gauge visible at the front of the tray. When the
level reaches approximately 40 sheets, the front panel displays the low paper warning.
The Multi-Sheet Bypass Feeder (MBF) has tray-empty sensing but not paper-size sensing.
