Identifying and linking output bins

There is one standard output bin on all printer models. Depending on the model you selected, your output bin capacity is 250 or 500 sheets. If you need additional output capacity, there are several optional output bins available for the printer.

If you have multiple output bins, you can link them into a single output source. Linking output bins lets the printer automatically switch output to the next available bin.

Output bins available

The following table provides information on standard and optional output bin capability and connectivity.
