Customizing Tray 1 Operation
Customize Tray 1 to fit your printing needs.
The printer can be set to print from Tray 1 as long as it is loaded, or to print only from Tray 1 if the type of paper loaded is specifically requested. Set TRAY 1 MODE=FIRST or TRAY 1 MODE=CASSETTE from the Paper Handling Menu in the printer’s control panel. (Print speed might be slightly slower when printing from Tray 1 when TRAY 1 MODE=FIRST.)
Tray 1 Mode=First
If you do not keep paper in Tray 1 all the time, or you use Tray 1 only for manually feeding paper, keep the default setting, TRAY 1 MODE=FIRST in the Paper Handling Menu.
zTRAY 1 MODE=FIRST means that the printer usually pulls paper from Tray 1 first unless it is empty or closed.
z You can still choose paper from other trays by specifically choosing another tray in the printer driver or from your software application.
