If you are printing from an application or operating system that
does not support your printer driver, you can also select these
output modes from the printer’s control panel using the
SelecType menus. For details, see “SelecType Settings” on page
5-6.
The 5-Bin Multi-Purpose Unit has a total capacity of 500 sheets.
Bin 1 holds 250 sheets, Bins 2 through 4 hold 50 sheets each, and
Bin 5 holds 100 sheets.
Note:
❏
When this unit is installed, you cannot use the standard Face-down
Tray.
❏
Changing the output mode too frequently could cause confusion and
should be avoided.
❏
Before changing the output mode, always consult your printer’s
administrator and inform all other users of the changes.
Using the mailbox feature
The mailbox mode allows each bin to be assigned to an individual
or department.
When in the mailbox mode, if Bin 1 (the first bin from the bottom)
is assigned to you, you always need to select Bin 1 as your output
tray in the printer driver when sending a job to this printer.
Make sure all users know who is assigned to which bin.
Using the sorter feature
You can use the 5-Bin Multi-Purpose Unit as a sorter, like those
on copiers. In this mode, you can print a total of five copies for
each print job, one copy in each bin. If your printer has at least
64 MB of memory installed, you can print more than five copies
at a time by using the multiple sorter feature explained below.
