Using The Feed Command - Xerox 4050 Operator's Manual

PRINT JOB MAINTENANCE

Using the FEED command

5-16
The choice of feeder trays for each job can be established either
as part of the job setup or by you, the operator. When you are
using the FEED command to select feeder trays, keep the
following points in mind:
• The MAIN cluster is predefined as tray 1, the AUX cluster as
tray 2, and the AUTO cluster as all the trays physically present
in the printer. However, all of these clusters may have been
redefined at installation. You can also override these
definitions with the CLUSTER (CLU) and CLP commands.
• The FEED 1 and FEED MAIN commands will not have the
same result, even if the main cluster consists of only tray 1.
• Remember to enter the FEED MAIN command after a change
of shift or after the printer is serviced. A previous operator
or a service representative may have instructed the LPS to
use a specific tray or cluster to override all the tray
specifications within the jobs you start. The FEED MAIN
command returns control to the printer.
Use the following FEED command to select a tray, cluster name,
or cluster mode (MAIN, AUX, and AUTO):
FEED [MAIN|AUX|AUTO|tray-number|cluster-name]
(no parameters)
If the printer is in FEED MAIN or FEED AUX mode, the
command with no parameters toggles to the other of these
two modes. If the printer is not in one of these two modes,
the command has no effect.
MAIN
Feeds from the MAIN cluster and gives the printer control of
paper sources to ensure that all sheets from a designated
stock name are fed from the assigned cluster.
AUX
Feeds from the AUX cluster and overrides the feed source
specified in the job.
AUTO
Feeds from the AUTO cluster.
tray-number
Feeds from a specified feed tray until you enter another FEED
command. This command overrides the feed source
specified in the job.
cluster-name
Feeds from a specified feed tray until you enter another FEED
command. This command overrides the feed source
specified in the job.
