							Configure trays
The product automatically prompts you to configure a tray for type and size in the following situations:
●When you load paper into the tray
● When you specify a particular tray or media type for a print job through the printer driver or a
software program and the tray is not configured to match the print-job’s settings
The following message appears on the control panel:  Tray  [type] [size] To change size or type,
touch “Modify”. To accept, touch “OK” .
NOTE:The prompt does not appear if you are printing from Tray 1 and Tray 1 is configured for  Any
Custom  and Any Type .
NOTE:If you have used other HP LaserJet product models, you might be accustomed to configuring
Tray 1 to  First mode or  Cassette  mode. For this product, setting Tray 1 size to  Any Custom is equivalent
to First  mode. Setting size for Tray 1 to a setting other than  Any Custom is equivalent to  Cassette
mode.

Automatic overhead transpar ency sensing (auto sense mode)
The automatic media type sensor functions only when that tray is configured to the  Any Type setting.
Configuring a tray to any other type, such as Bond or Glossy, deactivates the media sensor in that tray.
The product can automatically classify paper types into one of two categories:
● Non-transparency
● Transparency
For more control, a specific type must be selected in the job or configured in a tray.
