!

Paper tray size settings in your application software

override the printer’s front operator panel settings.

If all paper sources have the same paper size selected, the

printer will normally feed paper in the following sequence:

(1) the first tray

(2) the paper expansion tray (if installed)

(3) the second paper expansion tray (if installed)

(4) the front feeder

(5) the multipurpose feeder (if installed).

If any paper tray has a different size paper selected, it will be

skipped.

If you wish to change the sequence, use the Maintenance

Menu (see “The User Maintenance Menu” in the Printer

Control chapter).
