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.

Load both trays with the same media, and have the device pick media from one tray if the other one is empty.

Have both special media (such as transparencies or letterhead) and plain paper loaded in the trays.
