Customizing Tray 1 operation

Customize Tray 1 to fit your printing needs.

The MFP can be set to print from Tray 1 in the following situations:

When the tray is loaded and when TRAY 1 SIZE=ANY SIZE and TRAY 1 TYPE=ANY TYPE

(formerly First mode). Print speed might be slower than normal.

Only when the type of paper loaded is specifically requested when TRAY 1 SIZE=a specific size and TRAY 1 TYPE=a specific type (formerly Cassette mode).

Printing from Tray 1 when the loaded paper is requested

When TRAY 1 SIZE=a specific size and TRAY 1 TYPE=a specific type (formerly Cassette mode), the MFP treats Tray 1 like the internal trays. Instead of looking for paper in Tray 1 first, the MFP pulls paper starting either from the bottom tray upward or starting with the tray that matches type or size settings selected in the program from which you are printing.

In the software program or the Print dialog box, select the type and size for a tray, if possible. Otherwise, set the type and size at the MFP control panel. (See Specifying paper to print on.)

When TRAY 1 SIZE=a specific size and TRAY 1 TYPE=a specific type is set at the MFP control panel, an option appears in the PAPER HANDLING menu to configure size as well as type settings for Tray 1.

Manually feeding paper from Tray 1

The manual feed feature is another way of printing on special paper from Tray 1, such as envelopes or letterhead.
