Paper Feeder

If you switch paper sizes frequently, you may want to add a second paper source. Or you may simply wait to increase the paper capacity of your printer. You can easily do this by installing an optional paper feeder which consists of a base frame and a paper tray. The paper tray in the paper feeder is identified as tray 2 and the one in the basic configuration is identified as tray 1.

The paper types and sizes used by tray 2 are the same as those for the standard paper tray. The capacity is 500 sheets of 0.09 mm thick paper, twice that of the standard paper tray.
