For example, if you have the same size and type of print media loaded in tray 2 and tray 4, the printer selects print media from tray 2 until it becomes empty,
and then the printer automatically feeds print media from the next linked tray
—
tray 4.
By linking all trays (standard and optional), you effectively create a single source with a capacity of up to 2,600 sheets.
Make sure you load the same size and type of print media in each tray in order to link the trays. Set the paper size and type for each tray.
To set the paper type or size:
1.
Press the
Menu
button
on the operator panel.
2.
Press the
Down
arrow button
until
appears next to

arrow button
until
appears next to

The printer returns to
Ready
.
To disable tray linking, set the
Paper Type
to a unique value in each one of the trays. If all the trays do not have the same type of print media when they are
linked, you could mistakenly print a job on the wrong paper type.
Identifying and Linking Output Bins
There is one standard output bin that holds 250 sheets. If you need additional output capacity, you can install up to three optional output expanders.
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.

Not all output bins support every paper and envelope size.
