Loading Tray 5 (Bypass Tray) and
Changing the Tray Settings
This tray is used for non-standard printing media from A6 SEF (4.25 x 5.5" SEF) to 432 mm (17")
wide.
Note: SEF is Short Edge Feed (where the short edge of the paper is the leading edge when the paper
is fed into the device). LEF is Long Edge Feed (where the paper is oriented so that the long edge is
fed into the device first).
The Bypass Tray is a paper tray on the left hand side of your device and can be folded away when
not in use. It is primarily intended for use as a small quantity, special materials feeder and
accommodates media of all types including transparencies (non-paper backed), envelopes and
tabs.
When media is detected in the Bypass Tray a paper settings screen is displayed. Use the dropdown
menus to change the size, type and color of the media loaded. The guides automatically detect the
size of media loaded and the device gives a warning if the guides are not set correctly or a non-
standard media size is used.
The tray can feed a range of media weights and types.
• The tray holds up to 100 sheets of 75 gsm (20 lb) paper. The number of sheets is calculated
proportionally based on the sheet thickness, for example the maximum for 216 gsm (75 lb)
paper is 34 sheets.
• The media weight range is from 60 (16 lb) to 200 gsm (53 lb).
• The following media size range can be fed from the tray. From A6 (4.25 x 5.5") to A3 (11 x 17").
The width can be adjusted to any size within this range.
It is important to select the correct Type for the media loaded in the tray. The device can detect
different types of media as each page travels through the paper path and will halt a job if a
mismatch occurs.
Only use the types of media specified for use in the tray.
