Tray 1 is the standard blank paper input tray and can hold up to 530 sheets of paper.
Additional trays, to give a total of five, can be added as an option to give a total tray
capacity of 2650 sheets of paper.
If you have identical paper stock loaded in another tray (for example Tray 2 or the MP
Tray), you can have the printer automatically switch to that other tray when the current
tray runs out of paper. This function can be enabled by driver settings when printing from
a Windows application or by a menu setting when printing from other applications.

TRAY
The multi-purpose tray is used for media sizes additional to those of the standard trays,
heavier media weights and special media.
The multi-purpose tray can handle the same sizes as the standard trays but in weights up
to 300g/m². For very heavy paper stock use the face-up paper stacker. This ensures that
the paper path through the printer is almost straight.
The multi-purpose tray can feed paper widths as small as 76.2mm and lengths up to
1200mm. For banner printing, recommended sizes are A3 banner, 900mm and 1200mm
long and weight 128g/m². Since paper of width less than 100mm does not auto feed, you
have to press the ONLINE button to cause it to feed.
Use the multi purpose tray for printing on envelopes and transparencies. Up to 100 sheets
of transparencies or 25 envelopes can be loaded at one time, subject to a maximum
stacking depth of 25mm.
Paper or transparencies should be loaded print side up and top edge into the printer. Do
not use the duplex (two-sided printing) function for transparencies.

DOWN
STACKER
The face-down stacker on the top of the printer can hold up to 500 sheets of 80g/m²
standard paper, and can handle paper stocks from 64 – 216g/m². Pages printed in reading
order (page 1 first) will be sorted in reading order (last page on top, facing down).

UP
STACKER
The face-up stacker should be opened and the tray extension pulled out when required for
use. (With the face-up stacker either open or closed, the driver setting of Face Down will
successfully direct prints to the Face-Down stacker.)
The face-up stacker can hold up to 200 sheets of 80g/m² standard paper and can handle
stocks up to 300g/m².
Always use this stacker and the multi-purpose feeder for paper stocks heavier than
216g/m².
