Linking output bins
Linking output bins lets you create a single output source so the printer can automatically switch output to the next available
bin. You can also set the output type for media such as card stock or envelope sizes that cannot be sent to an optional
output bin. For more information on the values available to configure your output bins, see the
Menus and Messages Guide
.
Note:
The bin sequence for linking always starts with the Standard Bin and proceeds from the bin nearest
to the floor to the bin farthest from the floor.
