Understanding default tray behavior for the Mac OS
For the Mac OS, Tray 2 is always the default tray except under these circumstances:
zYou select a size or type that is not supported by Tray 2. The printer automatically selects Tray 1.
zYou place an envelope in the envelope slot. The printer automatically pulls the envelope first.
zYou are using the printer on a network and a Windows user has set Tray 1 as the default tray in the Toolbox. See “Selecting a default tray”.
zWhen you are printing the current job, you select Tray 1 from the Paper Source or Source box in the Print dialog box.
For more information about changing settings just for the document you are printing, see “To change settings from an application (current jobs)” or “Changing settings for the Mac OS”.
Printing using the PCL 3 printer driver
In most situations, you will probably print documents using the printer driver. Although specific options vary depending on the application you are using, you can usually gain access to the printer driver by clicking File and then clicking Print in the application.
For more information about printer driver features, see the printer driver online Help. For more information about printing from a specific application, see the documentation for that application. For information about printing from a Macintosh computer, see “Changing settings for the Mac OS”.
