3.10.1 MP Tray Mode
This section explains how to change mode for the MP (multi-purpose) tray, the paper size and
type for each paper source, mode for the option sorter, and how to select the paper source and
paper destinations.
The MP tray can be used in either of two modes — first or cassette. The MP tray feed
paper differently depending on the mode:
•
First Mode
The MP tray automatically feeds paper placed on the MP tray overriding another paper
source that is selected on the printer driver. After all paper sheets in the MP tray have been
used up (approximately 150 sheets), paper will be fed from the paper source originally
selected. This mode is convenient to feed paper of special size or type without reloading
the current paper source. However, the MP tray must be kept empty if you desire to feed
paper from the intended paper source.
•
Cassette Mode
This is the default mode. The MP tray acts in the same manner as other paper source. The
printer can correctly feed paper from any paper source as you command on the printer
driver. The cassette mode provides a faster printing speed than the first mode.
To switch the MP tray to Cassette mode, proceed as follows:
