which you have already set in Printer properties. In this mode the MPF is treated as another

Tray Behavior
Tray Linking
Tray linking enables the automatic linking feature for trays when you load the same size and type of print
media in multiple sources. The printer automatically links the trays; when one tray is not available for paper
empty or mismatch, the printer will use the next available linked tray to feed print media for the printing.
For example, if you have the same size and type of print media loaded in tray 2, the printer selects print
media from tray 2 until it becomes empty, and then the printer automatically feeds print media from the
next linked tray.
By linking all trays (standard and optional), you effectively create a single source with a capacity of up to
550 sheets.
Make sure you load the same size and type of print media in each tray in order to link the trays. Set the
paper size and type for each tray.
To disable tray linking you can either choose unique paper size/type for each tray or using operator panel to
disable tray linking.
NOTE: You can use this feature in print, copy, and fax job.
NOTE: Do not open the tray 1, while the machine is printing with tray 2. Because paper jam might
occur.

Substitute Size 
						

							This setting is used to determine whether the printer can substitute with another paper size when the
requested paper size is not available in any of the input trays. The Printer will substitute A4/Letter,
A5/Statement, B5/ISO B5, and Folio/Oficio. For example if A4 is requested paper size and there is no A4
paper in any of the input source then the printer will print on Letter size paper, if available.
Substitute size set to  Off means no substitution is allowed for the requested paper size. This option is not
applied for received fax printing.
NOTE: You can use this feature in print and copy job.
MPF
MPF can be configured to behave in  Tray Mode or in  Bypass Mode  by setting the  Configure MPF  menu in
