To unlink trays from a locally connected printer, do one of the following:

•On a Windows computer, access the Paper menu through the Local Printer Settings Utility. Then, change the Paper Type and Paper Size settings of the tray so that they do not match the settings of any other tray.

•On a Macintosh computer, access the Paper menu through the Printer Settings. Then, change the Paper Type and Paper Size settings of the tray so that they do not match the settings of any other tray.

Warning—Potential Damage: Do not assign a Paper Type name that does not accurately describe the type of paper loaded in the tray. The temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified Paper Type. Paper may not be properly processed if an inaccurate Paper Type is selected.

Assigning a Custom Type <x> name

Assigning a Custom Type <x> name to a tray enables you to link or unlink it. Use the same Custom Type <x> name for each tray that you want to link. Only trays with the same custom names assigned will link.

•On a Windows computer, access the Paper menu through the Local Printer Settings Utility.

•On a Macintosh computer, access the Paper menu through the Printer Settings.
