  • Page 33: Map Input Trays Menu Options

    3.6 MAP INPUT TRAYS Menu Options This option defines the mapping of the host's request for a physical feeder or input tray in the printer. Any host input source can be mapped to any printer input source. The printer input source is mapped to an IPDS host number.
  • Page 34 Important: For MAP INPUT TRAYS to work correctly, the Paper Size/Type for each printer input tray must be set differently in the printer’s Paper Menu. See example 1 below. The only time you set the PAPER TYPE the same for more than one input tray is when you want to link the input trays involved.
  • Page 35 Example 3 - Understanding what happens when an IPDS tray selection number is mapped twice If an IPDS tray selection number is mapped (used) twice, the lowest tray mapping number is activated (if available). For example if Tray Mapping 6 and 7 both map to IPDS 64 as shown below, the printer will select media from the Env Feeder.

  • Page 36: Map Output Bins Menu Options

    3.7 MAP OUTPUT BINS Menu Options This option defines the mapping of the host's request for a physical output bin in the printer. The printer physical bin is mapped to an IPDS output bin selection number that is specified in the IPDS data stream. Printer output bins include the top of the printer (standard bin) and optional output bins that attach to the printer.

For each media type, you can select Duplex or Off. If you have set the value in the printer menu to Duplex and have loaded preprinted media (such as letterhead) correctly for duplex printing, any IPDS job received from the host, whether duplex or simplex, will print correctly on the paper.
