Using the

Offset Catch

Tray (OCT)

The Offset Catch Tray (Figure 2.6)—hereafter referred to as OCT—is an optional output device available for the LN17 printer. (See Appendix A for ordering information and Appendix B for installation instructions.)

After installing the OCT, submit your print jobs as usual.

You can set the OCT to operate in three different manners:

Set the Output Bin option (in both the PCL Emulat and PostScript menus) to OCT No Offset, and the OCT will not offset jobs.

Set the Output Bin option to OCT On Job, and the OCT will offset jobs from one another.

Set the Output Bin option to OCT On Job/Copy, and the OCT will offset jobs from one another. It will also offset each set of copies of individual pages of an uncollated multiple copy job.

With the OCT installed, the standard output tray still functions normally. The OCT gives you approximately

500 sheets of letter/A4 20 lb (75 g/m2) maximum collated output. The standard output tray adds another 250 sheets.
