							Configure trays
The MFP might automatically prompt you to configure a tray for type and size when you load media into
the tray.
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
Size  and Any Type .
NOTE:If you have used other HP LaserJet printer models, you might be accustomed to configuring
tray 1 to  First mode or  Cassette mode. On the HP LaserJet M9059 MFP, setting tray 1 size and type
to Any Size is equivalent to  First mode. Setting size or type for tray 1 to a setting other than  Any
Size  is equivalent to  Cassette mode.
Configure a tray when loading media
1.Load media in the tray. Close the tray if you are using tray 2, 3, or 4.
2. If the tray configuration message appears, touch OK  to accept the detected size, or touch Modify
to choose a different paper size.
3. If modifying the tray configuration, select the size.
NOTE: The MFP automatically detects most media sizes in trays 2, 3, and 4.
4.If modifying the tray configuration, select the paper type.
5. Touch  Exit.

You can also configure the trays for type and size without a prompt from the MFP.
1. Scroll to and touch  Supplies Status.
2. Touch the desired tray.
3. Touch  Modify.
4. Select the size and type. If you select a custom type, use the numeric keypad to set the X dimension
and the Y dimension, and then touch  OK.
5. Touch  OK.
6. Touch  OK again.
Select the media by source, type, or size
In the Microsoft Windows operating system, three settings affect how the printer driver tries to pull media
when you send a print job.  Source, Type, and Size  settings appear in the  Page Setup, Print, or Print
Properties  dialog boxes in most software programs. Unless you change these settings, the MFP
automatically selects a tray using the default settings.
88 Chapter 6   Paper and print media ENWW
 
						

							Source
To print by Source select a specific tray from MFP to pull fr om. The MFP tries to print from this tray, no
matter what type or size is loaded. If you select a tray that is configured for a type or size that does not
match your print job, the MFP does not print automatically. Instead, it waits for you to load the tray with
the type or size of print media for your print job. If you load the tray, the MFP begins printing.
Type and Size
Printing by  Type or Size  means that you want the MFP to pull from the tray that is loaded with the correct
type and size of media. Selecting media by type rather than source is similar to locking out trays and
helps protect special media from accidental use. For example, if a tray is configured for letterhead and
you select plain paper, the MFP will not pull the letterhead from that tray. Instead, it will pull from a tray
that has plain paper loaded and is configured for plain paper on the MFP control panel. Selecting media
by Type and Size results in significantly better print quality for heavy paper, glossy paper, and
transparencies. Using the wrong setting might result in unsatisfactory print quality. Always print by Type
for special print media, such as labels or transparencies. Print by Size for envelopes, if possible.
● To print by Type or Size, select the Type or Size from the 
Page Setup dialog box, the Print  dialog
box, or the  Print Properties  dialog box, depending on the software program.
● If you often print on a certain type or size of media, configure a tray for that type or size. Then,
when you select that type or size as you print a job, the MFP pulls media from the tray that is
configured for that type or size.

							Select the output bin
The MFP has at least two output bin locations: the ADF output bin (1) and an output bin on the output
device.
Figure 6-22  Output bins
It is recommended that you select an output location through the software program or printer driver.
Stacker or stapler/stacker output bins
If you choose the 3,000-sheet stacker or 3,000-sheet stapler/stacker, the output bins are the upper bin
(2) (face up) and the lower bin (3) (face down).
The upper bin (face-up) (2) is the top bin on the stacker or stapler/stacker. This bin holds up to 100
sheets of paper in face-up order as they exit the MFP. A sensor causes the product to stop when the
bin is full. Product operation continues when you empty or reduce the amount of paper in the bin.
The lower bin (face-down) (3) is the lower bin on the stacker or stapler/stacker. This bin holds up to
3,000 sheets of paper and allows you to stack or staple jobs. This bin is the default output bin.
8-bin mailbox output bins
If you choose the 8-bin mailbox, the output bins are the upper bin and the eight face-down bins.
The upper bin (4) holds up to 125 sheets of paper.
The network administrator can assign the eight bins (5) to individual users or workgroups. Each bin can
stack up to 250 sheets of paper.
Multifunction finisher output bins
If you choose the multifunction finisher, the output bins are the upper bin ( 6) and the lower booklet bin
(7).
The upper bin (6) is the top bin on the multifunction finisher. This bin provides 1,000 sheets of stacking
capacity and can offset each job as it is stacked, delivering unstapled jobs face up or face down. This
bin also provides stapling for up to 50 sheets of paper per document. The upper bin is the default output
bin when the multifunction finisher is attached.
The lower booklet bin (7) is the lower bin on the multifunction finisher. This bin provides folding and
saddle stitching of booklets for up to 10 sheets of paper.
