Notes

When you select a feeder, note the following:

The “FEEDER=TRAY2” message appears only when the optional lower tray unit has been installed.

The FEEDER=AUTO setting allows you to optimize your printing environment. This setting allows a print job to continue uninterrupted when a paper out condition occurs. The default setting is AUTO. This setting allows a common printing situation: Loading the same size and type of paper in both paper trays allows your print job to continue without error if one of the paper trays becomes empty. The printer automatically will select the other tray when one tray becomes empty.

When you select FEEDER=AUTO, the printer automatically searches for the paper size you set with the Mode button in the PAGE FORMAT mode and then loads the paper from the paper source that contains the selected size of paper. If the upper and lower Media Cassettes contain different sizes of paper and one Media Cassette runs out of paper, the printer stops printing without automatically changing to the other paper source to feed paper. It prevents the incorrect size of paper from being printed by mistake.

If you have the same size of paper loaded but of different type (i.e.: FORM “A” in Tray 1, Form “B” in Tray 2) we recommended that you change the feeder setting from AUTO to Tray 1. This will pause the printer when a paper empty condition occurs, allowing you to load the correct type of paper. Press Select to finish the print job.

4.Press the Set button to make the displayed selection effective. When you select “TRAY 1” or “TRAY 2,” for a short time an asterisk appears at the end of the display. Then the “exit” message appears on the display. Press the Set button again, so the printer exits from the setting mode to the off-line state. When you select “AUTO”, the tray selection menu for the auto paper feed appears on the display.

5.Change the tray combination and priority with the or button.

When “AUTO=T1>T2” is set, both Tray 1 and the Tray 2 are selected but tray 1 will be selected first if the paper size in tray 1 and the page size for the print job match each other. (If you are using the optional Lower Tray and want to give priority to Tray 2, you can use the “AUTO=T2>T1” setting.)

6.Press the Set button.
