Linking And Unlinking Trays; Printing A Document; Adjusting Toner Darkness - Lexmark C925 Quick Reference

Linking and unlinking trays

Linking trays
Tray linking is useful for large print jobs or for printing multiple copies.
When one linked tray is empty, paper feeds from the next linked tray.
When the Paper Size and Paper Type settings are the same for any
trays, the trays are automatically linked. The Paper Size setting is
automatically sensed according to the position of the paper guides in
each tray except Tray 1 and the multipurpose feeder. The Paper Size
setting for the multipurpose feeder must be set manually from the
Paper Size menu. The Paper Type setting must be set for all trays from
the Paper Type menu. The Paper Type menu and the Paper Size menu
are both available from the Paper Size/Type menu.
Unlinking trays
Note: Trays that do not have the same settings as any other tray are
not linked.
Change one of the following tray settings:
• Paper Type
Paper Type names describe the paper characteristics. If the name
that best describes your paper is used by linked trays, assign a
different Paper Type name to the tray, such as Custom Type [x], or
define your own custom name.
• Paper Size
Load a different paper size to automatically change the Paper Size
setting for a tray. Paper Size settings for the multipurpose feeder
are not automatic; they must be set manually from the Paper Size
menu.
Warning—Potential Damage: Do not assign a Paper Type name that
does not accurately describe the type of paper loaded in a tray. The
temperature of the fuser varies according to the specified Paper
Type. Prints may not be properly processed if an inaccurate Paper
Type is selected.
Creating a custom name for a paper type
If the printer is on a network, you can use the Embedded Web Server
to define a name other than Custom Type [x] for each of the custom
paper types loaded into the printer.
