Selecting a media tray configuration

If you print on different types of media (paper and transparencies, letterhead or label stock) or different media sizes (Letter and A4), you’ll want to get the appropriate media tray for the type of media you use. For transparency printing, the optional transparency tray is recommended.

The standard paper tray shipped with your printer accepts Letter-size paper and label stock. An optional A4-size paper tray also supports A4-size paper and label stock printing. Optional transparency trays can be ordered for Letter- and A4-size transparency media. An optional Lower Paper Tray Assembly for high-volume printing can be ordered for Letter- and A4-size paper only.

Refer to “Optional media trays” on page B-3 for ordering information.

Office paper, letterhead, and label stock printing

Standard paper tray: Use the standard 200-sheet paper tray shipped with your printer for paper, letterhead, and label stock print jobs.

Optional Lower Paper Tray Assembly: In workgroup printing environments, you’ll want to add the optional 500-sheet Lower Paper Tray Assembly to supplement the standard paper tray. The Lower Paper Tray is also convenient when you want to print on paper (lower tray) and another media, such as transparency, letterhead, or label stock (upper tray). With dual-tray capability, you can print on different media without the need to leave your computer to switch printer trays.

Note The Lower Paper Tray Assembly supports printing on paper only.

Transparency printing

Transparency tray: If you often print transparencies, you can save time and effort by purchasing an optional transparency tray dedicated for printing transparencies. Using both paper and transparency trays, you can easily print on several types of media by simply swapping trays. There is no need to load and unload trays when changing between media types.
