Selecting a tray

The printer only picks up media in the currently selected tray unless you turn on Auto-Pick. If the currently selected tray runs out of print media and Auto-Pick is not selected, you will receive a message that instructs you to add more paper to that tray. If Auto-Pick is selected, the printer will try to pick up media from the other tray.

When you select Auto-Pick, the printer draws from the front manual feed, Tray 1 or Tray 2. The printer will only draw from the rear manual feed when you select this input path from the printer driver.

To turn on Auto-Pick

1From the Start menu, click Settings, and then click Printers to open the Printers folder.
