Setting paper-handling options

When the LaserWriter 12/640 PS runs out of paper in one tray, it can automatically switch and use paper in another paper cassette or the multipurpose tray. By using automatic tray switching between the 250-sheet paper cassette and the 80-sheet multipurpose tray, you can print 330 sheets without reloading paper. If you have the optional 500-sheet cassette and feeder, and it contains the same size paper, automatic tray switching includes it as a paper source. Combining all three paper sources lets you print up

to 830 sheets without reloading paper.

Note: The Paper Handling category sets the default paper-handling options for the LaserWriter 12/640 PS printer. You can change printer settings without changing the printer’s basic defaults by changing the settings in the Print and Page Setup dialog boxes. Network users should use the Print and Page Setup dialog boxes to choose the individual settings for their documents.

1Open the Paper Handling category.

The Paper Handling panel appears.

Choose the size of paper in the multipurpose tray. (If you print jobs that are a different size paper, the printer avoids the multipurpose tray.)

2Click the checkbox to turn Automatic Tray Switching on or off.

When an X appears in the checkbox, tray switching is turned on.
