5.4.7 Automatic Tray Selection
If you set paper source on the [Paper/Output] tab to [Paper Source] in the PCL6
print driver's properties screen when making prints, the machine automatically
selects the corresponding paper tray according to the size and orientation of the
document to print. This is called "Automatic Tray Selection".
If the machine judges that there are two or more corresponding trays in auto-
matic tray selection, the machine gives higher priority to the tray having the high-
est [Paper Type Priority] set at [Tray Paper Type]. During automatic tray
selection, trays whose [Paper Type Priority] setting is set to [Off] are not targeted
in [Automatic Tray Selection]. Also, if the [Paper Priority] setting is exactly the
same, automatic tray selection is determined by [Tray Priority].
●
If no trays satisfy the selection conditions, a message prompting replenishment of paper appears.
However, it is possible to set so that a paper size close to the document size or a greater paper size
is selected for printing without displaying this message.
●
- When the machine runs out of paper during printing, select the tray containing the paper of the
same size and orientation that was being used for printing, and continue printing (Auto Tray Switch
feature). During this operation, a tray containing paper of type whose [Paper Priority] setting is
set to [Off] cannot be switched to.
For information about setting [Paper Type], [Paper Type Priority], [Paper Tray Priority], and setting
the paper substitute feature, refer to "Printer Settings" (P.280). Some of these settings can also be
made from CentreWare Internet Services.
