Using the Optional Cut-Sheet Feeders

The optional high-capacity cut-sheet feeder (C80684 ) can load up to 150
sheets of paper in the printer. You can also create a double-bin cut-sheet
feeder by connecting the second bin cut-sheet feeder (C80685 ) to the high-
capacity cut-sheet feeder. The double-bin cut-sheet feeder allows you to load
two different types of single-sheet paper in the printer at the same time and
easily switch between them. To assemble the double-bin cut-sheet feeder
and load paper in the second-bin cut-sheet feeder, see the second-bin cut-
sheet feeder manual. See "Selecting the paper source (bin 1 or bin 2)" on page
A-10 for instructions.
Note:
The second-bin cut-sheet feeder can be used in combination with the high-capacity
cut-sheet feeder only; you cannot use it separately.
