Selecting the paper source (bin 1 or bin 2)
When the double-bin cut-sheet feeder is installed, you need to select the paper source (bin 1 or bin 2) using your application or the printer’s control panel. As shown below, the high-capacity cut-sheet feeder becomes bin 1 and the second-bin cut-sheet feeder becomes bin 2.
bin 1: high-capacity cut-sheet feeder
bin 2: second-bin cut-sheet feeder
It is best to select the paper source in your application program because software settings usually override the printer’s control panel settings. However, if you cannot select the paper source in your application, press the Tear Off/Bin button until the lights indicate the bin you want as shown below. When the printer receives data, the cut-sheet feeder automatically loads the paper from the bin you select.
o n Bin 1 (the high-capacity cut-sheet feeder) is selected.
n o Bin 2 (the second-bin cut-sheet feeder) is selected.
n= on, o = off
