NOTE: Tray 2 is available with some models. For ordering information, see Order printing supplies online.
By default, the device draws media from Tray 1. If Tray 1 is empty, the device draws media from Tray 2 (if it is installed and loaded with media). You can change this default behavior by using the following features:
•Tray Lock: Use this feature to protect special media such as letterhead or preprinted media from accidental use. If the device runs out of media while printing a document, it will not use media from a locked tray to complete the print job.
•Default Tray: Use this feature to determine the first tray from which the device draws media.
NOTE: To use the tray lock and default tray settings, you must select the automatic tray selection option in the device software. If the device is on a network and you set a default tray, the setting will affect all users of the device.
Tray 2 is designed to hold only plain paper.
The following table lists possible ways you can use the tray settings to meet your printing needs.
