Information about Printing on Tabs

Before printing a job with tabs, read the following information:
• You can set up your job to insert preprinted tabs into your document.
• Use one tray for the body pages, another tray for the preprinted tab stock, and
another tray for cover or back pages.
• While you can print tab stock from any of the paper trays on the system (Trays 1, 2,
3, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9), the recommendation is to use Trays 6, 7, 8, or 9 for best results.
• If you plan to apply staple or punch finishing, use Trays 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 only.
• Loading orientation depends on what tray you are using.
• Refer to Paper and Media for information and instructions on how to load and align
tab stock in the trays.
Print Server Information about Programming a Job with Tabs
There are many types of tab stock and tab sequences available. Precut tabs are commonly
used and have two different orientations: the single straight collated tab stock or the
single reverse collated tab stock.
When programming tab jobs and loading tab stock, consider the following:
• Precut tabs can only print 1-sided
• There are specific job settings that you need to define such as tab order / sequence,
number of bank sets, stock weight, paper size, and insertion before or after body
pages. Refer to your print server documentation for more detailed setting information.
• Always load tab stock LEF into the tray where the straight edge of the stock is the
lead edge and the tabs are oriented at the trail edge.
• Always use a complete set or bank or tabs in the paper tray.
• If staple or punch finishing, use trays 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or T1 (Inserter).
