Getting started

After the printer driver is installed, you have to configure the MBM in the printer driver and at the control panel before you can use it.

Whether the MBM is connected to a printer or MFP, an output bin is set to be the first or only bin to receive copies (the copy bin) or print jobs. See the following table for more information about which output bins are designated to received copy and print jobs. For more information, see “Sending a copy job to an output bin that is different from the default” on page 16.
