6.5.3 Mode Description

There are five paper ejection modes as described in the following
sections.

6.5.3.1 Normal Mode (Non-Sort Mode)

In this mode, the entry part of the Horizontal Transport Unit raises to
transport paper from the printer to the Bin 1 in the Tray Section via the
Horizontal Transport Unit. Normally, this is used in the printing mode.
Paper empty condition is detected by the Bin 1 Paper Empty Sensor
and paper full condition is detected by the Bin 1 Paper Full Sensor.

6.5.3.2 Large Capacity Mode (Stacker Mode)

In this mode, the entry part of the Horizontal Transport Unit raises to
transport paper from the printer to the Bin 1 in the Tray Section via the
Horizontal Transport Unit.

6.5.3.3 Mailbox Mode

In this mode, the entry part of the Horizontal Transport Unit raises to
transport paper from the printer to the selected bin in the Tray Section.
This mode is convenient when some bins are allocated to specific
users, who uses the printer or receives prints frequently. Any bin can be
allocated.

6.5.3.4 Sorter Mode

All bins are used to collate. For example, 1st page is ejected from the
Bin 1 down to Bin 10 and second page is ejected from the Bin 10 up to
Bin 1.
Operating principles

6.5.3.5 Multiple Sorter Mode

All bins are used to eject paper separately per job. Unlike the sorter
mode, the number of copies is not limited. As one-job pages are ejected
to a bin, the bin to be used swathes for the next print job. When the
number of jobs exceeds 10, the number of the bins, sheets are output to
the Bin 10, 9,...., in that order for each additional job.
NOTE: To use the 10-bin Unit in the multiple sorter mode, instal an
expansion RAM in the printer. Otherwise, the printer will
show the error.
