Selecting Paper Options For Printing; Setting The Tray 1 Mode; Setting The Tray 2 Mode - Xerox ColorQube 8580 User Manual

Selecting Paper Options for Printing

There are two ways to select the paper for your print job. You can let the printer select which paper to
use based on the document size, paper type, and paper color you specify. You can also select a specific
tray loaded with the desired paper.

Setting the Tray 1 Mode

Tray 1 mode specifies how the printer determines paper size and type when paper is loaded into Tray 1
but not specified at the printer control panel.

Setting the Tray 2 Mode

Tray 2 mode specifies how the printer determines paper size and type when paper is loaded into Tray 2
and any additional 525-sheet feeder trays, but not specified at the printer control panel. Dynamic is the
default setting for Tray 2 mode. You can override Tray 2 mode at the printer control panel when you
load paper into the 525-sheet feeder trays.
Notes:
• For multiple 525-sheet feeders, the control panel displays a number for each additional tray.
For tray 3, the control panel displays Tray 2-3 Mode.
• You can add additional 525-sheet feeder trays. For details, see

Description
The current paper type and size are in effect until you change them at the printer
control panel.
The first print job that uses tray 1 after paper is loaded sets the paper size and type.
You can override the settings at the printer control panel.
The incoming job prints from tray 1 automatically when paper is in tray 1 and no
other tray is specified.
The printer changes the paper size and type only when you modify the settings at the
printer control panel.
