The printer selects the tray from which to draw paper when:
■
The front panel paper source is set to
Auto Select
, and
■
The Let printer select which tray to print from option is selected in the printer driver.
Note
If you use the driver to specify a tray to use for your print job, tray switching is disabled
for that job. If the tray becomes empty during printing, the front panel prompts you to load
paper in that tray even if another tray contains the correct paper type and size for the job.
Tray Switching Settings
■
If tray switching is enabled, and a tray runs out of paper while printing, then the printer
selects another tray containing the same paper type, size, and orientation to continue
printing the job.
■
If tray switching is disabled, and a tray runs out of paper while printing, then the front
panel prompts you that the tray is empty and must be refilled.
Tray Sequence
You can specify the sequence the printer uses to select trays containing the correct paper type
and size for a print job. When a tray runs out of the correct paper during printing, the printer
selects the next tray in the sequence containing the correct paper type and size to continue
printing the job.
For example, if the tray sequence is set to 4-3-2, the printer selects paper from Tray 4 to print a
job. If Tray 4 does not contain the requested paper, or runs out of paper while printing, the
printer selects Tray 3. If neither Tray 4 nor Tray 3 contains the requested paper, or is out of
paper, then Tray 2 is selected.
You can specify the tray sequence by two different methods:

The printer’s front panel
