HP 4250/4350 manual Understanding media output options, Printing to the top standard output bin

Understanding media output options

The printer has three output locations: the top (standard) output bin, the rear output bin, and the optional stacker or stapler/stacker.

Printing to the top (standard) output bin

The top output bin collects paper face-down, in the correct order. The top output bin should be used for most print jobs, including transparencies. To use the top output bin, be sure that the rear output bin is closed. To avoid jams, do not open or close the rear output bin while the printer is printing.

Printing to the rear output bin

The printer always prints to the rear output bin if it is open. Media that is printed to this bin will exit face-up, with the last page on top (reverse order).

Printing from tray 1 to the rear output bin provides the straightest path. Opening the rear output bin might improve performance with the following items:

●Envelopes

●Labels

●Small custom-size paper

●Postcards

●Paper heavier than 120 g/m2 (32 lb)
