Paper handling refers to how the printer determines which tray to use when it receives a print job, and whether the printer control panel prompts you to specify the paper type and size when loading paper.

Selecting the Tray 1 Mode

The Tray 1 Mode setting specifies:

•How Tray 1 paper type and size are determined for print jobs when you load paper in the tray.

•Whether or not Tray 1 is used automatically for print jobs when it contains paper.

Tray 1 Mode Setting	Description
Permanent	Paper size and type are set from the control panel using the Paper Tray
	Setup > Tray 1 Paper menu. Tray 1 is not automatically used whenever
	it has paper and no other tray is specifically selected by the print job.
Static	Same as Permanent, plus paper size and type can be set when paper is
	inserted into Tray 1 if:
	• The Tray 1 Prompt is not set to None.
	• An error message on the control panel instructs you to load paper.
Dynamic (default)	Same as Static, plus the paper size and type can be set by the first print
	job that uses the tray after paper has been loaded. The size and type
	are determined by the settings in the print job.
Automatic	Same as Dynamic, plus the printer will print from Tray 1 when paper is
	loaded, unless a different tray is specified by the print job.
