5. 5Understanding the paper path
The paper path is the route materials (paper, transparencies, labels,
and so on) follow through the printer from the feeder trays to the
output trays.
Simplex paper path The figure below illustrates the simplex (one-sided output) paper
path of a printer with a dual stacker tray and standard feeder tray.
The materials move from either feeder tray 1 or feeder tray 2 and are
stacked in either stacker tray 1, stacker tray 2, or the sample tray,
depending on your selection at the beginning of the job.
Figure 5-1. Simplex paper path (dual stacker configuration)
Duplex paper path The following figure illustrates the duplex (two-sided output) paper
path of a printer with a dual stacker and standard feeder. Materials
may originate in either feeder tray 1 or feeder tray 2. The duplex
paper tray receives the materials before they go through a second
time to receive the second image. As the pages move through for the
second image, they follow the simplex path. The pages are then
stacked in either stacker tray 1 or stacker tray 2, depending on your
selection at the beginning of the job.
