Margin and Tray Linking Interaction
When trays are linked, the margins set in the
All Input Trays
menu and the margins
set for the tray specified in the IPDS data stream will be used to adjust the page image
on the paper
Example 1 – Margin and Tray Linking
Tray 1 is requested as the input source from the host. If tray 1 and tray 2 are linked and
tray 1 runs out of paper, paper will be pulled from tray 2. The margin adjustments
applied when printing from tray 2 will be the
All Input Trays
margins PLUS the
Tray
1 Adjust
margins set for the requested IPDS input source (tray 1).
Example 2 – Margin and Tray Linking
Tray 2 is requested as the input source from the host. If tray 1 and tray 2 are linked and
tray 2 runs out of paper, paper will be pulled from tray 1. The margin adjustments
applied when printing from tray 1 will be the
All Input Trays
margins PLUS the
Tray
2 Adjust
margins set for the requested IPDS input source (tray 2).
Example 3 – Margin and Tray Linking
Tray 2 is requested as the input source from the host. If tray 2, tray 3, and tray 4 are
linked and tray 2 runs out of paper, paper will be pulled from tray 3 until it is empty
and then from tray 4. The margin adjustments applied when printing from tray 3 or tray
4 will be the
All Input Trays
margins PLUS the
Tray 2 Adjust
margins set for the
requested IPDS input source (tray 2).
Margin and Tray Mapping Interaction
When the host’s IPDS Number has been mapped to another input source using the
Tray Mapping
option, the value of the
Tray Mapping
option will determine the
margin adjustment applied to pages printed from the selected tray.
Example – Margin and Tray Mapping
The host input source IPDS Number 1 normally selects the printer physical tray 2. If
IPDS Number 1 has been mapped to
Tray 1
, the
Tray 1 Adjust
margin values will be
applied to all pages in a job which have tray 2 specified as the input source.
