11 Linking bins

If you attach an optional finisher or mailbox to your printer, you can link output bins, or otherwise specify how the printer sends jobs to the bins, by changing the Configure Bins settings in the Paper Menu.

Value

Description

Mailbox

Lets you select an output bin when you send a job to print. (If you

 

prefer, you can select a default output bin for all print jobs to go to.) The

 

printer alerts you when the bin you selected becomes full, and stops

 

printing until you empty the bin.

 

 

Link

Links all available bins so that when one bin becomes full, the printer

 

sends jobs to the next linked bin.

 

 

Mail Overflow*

Sends jobs automatically to a preassigned overflow bin when the

 

current bin becomes full.

 

 

Type Assignment

Lets you assign different types of media to specific output bins or set of

 

linked bins. The printer then sends all printed media to the bin or set of

 

linked bins that you designated to receive each type of paper or

 

specialty media.

 

 

Only available if you have attached an optional mailbox.
