Setting the tray lock
This feature is only available if Tray 2 is installed in your printer and you have a computer that is running Windows. If the printer is on a network and you set tray lock, you will be setting it for all users of the printer, including Mac OS users.
Use the tray lock to protect special media such as letterhead or preprinted paper from accidental use. If the printer runs out of paper while printing a document, it will not use paper from a locked tray to complete the print job.

1Make sure the printer is on.
2Open the Toolbox.
3On the Printer Services tab, click Advanced Configuration.
4In the Lock Tray area, select the tray that you want to lock from accidental use and click OK.
Selecting a default tray
This feature is only available if Tray 2 is installed in your printer and you have a computer that is running Windows. If the printer is on a network and you select a default tray, you will be setting it for all users of the printer, including Mac OS users.

zThe same media is loaded in both trays.
zTray 2 is installed and loaded with a size that you do not want to use for most jobs.
Note that Tray 2 is automatically set as the default tray if you have not changed this setting. However, Tray 1 is automatically selected if you choose in the printer driver any type of media except plain paper (make sure that the printer driver is set up to do this).
