Manually feeding paper from tray 1

 

The manual feed feature is another way of printing on special paper from tray 1. Setting MANUAL

 

FEED to ON either in the printer driver or at the printer control panel stops the printer after each job

 

is sent, allowing you time to load special paper or other print media in tray 1. (See “MANUAL

 

FEED” on page 158.) Press PAUSE/RESUME to continue printing.

 

If there is already paper in tray 1 when you send the print job, and the printer control panel has

 

TRAY 1 TYPE=ANY and TRAY 1 SIZE=ANY as the default configuration for tray 1 operation, the

 

printer will not stop and wait for paper to be loaded. To have the printer wait, set TRAY 1 TYPE

 

and TRAY 1 SIZE to types other than ANY on the Paper Handling menu.

 

If you have selected MANUAL FEED=ON at the printer control panel, this setting will override the

 

printer driver, and all print jobs sent to the printer will request manually fed paper in tray 1 unless

 

a specific tray has been selected in the printer driver. If this feature is to be used only

 

occasionally, it is best to set MANUAL FEED=OFF at the printer control panel and to select the

 

manual feed option in the printer driver on a job-by-job basis.

 

 

Note

If the SIZE and TYPE are set to ANY, and MANUAL FEED PROMPT is set to UNLESS LOADED, then the

 

paper will be pulled from tray 1 without prompting. If MANUAL FEED PROMPT is set to ALWAYS, then

 

the printer will prompt you to load paper, even if tray 1 is set to TYPE=ANY and SIZE=ANY. (See

 

“MANUAL FEED PROMPT” on page 162.)
