							Control print jobs
When a job is sent to the printer, the printer driver controls what paper tray is used to pull media through
the printer. By default, the printer  automatically selects the tray, but a  specific tray can be chosen based
on three user-specified settings:  Source, Type , and  Size. These settings are available from the
Application Setting  dialog box, the Print dialog box, or the printer driver. 
SettingDescription
SourceDirects the device to pull paper from a user-specified tray. The
device tries to print from this  tray, no matter what type or size
media is loaded in it. To begin printing, load the selected tray
with the correct type or size of print media for the print job. After
loading the tray, the device begins  printing. If the device does
not begin printing:
● Verify the tray configuration matches the size or type of
the print job.
● Press 
OK to have the device try to print from another tray.
Type  or  Size Directs the device to pull paper or print media from the first tray
that is loaded with the type or size that you selected. Always
print by Type for special print media such as labels or
transparencies .

							Select output bins
The product has two output bins into which it places finished print jobs:
● Top (face-down) output bin: This it the default ou
tput bin at the top of the product. Print jobs exit
the product face-down into this bin.
● Rear (face-up) output bin: Print jobs exit the produc
t face-up into this bin at the rear of the product.
NOTEYou cannot use automatic duplex printing when printing to the rear output bin.

ENWW 75
 
						

							Use the convenience stapler
A convenience stapler is mounted to the front, right side of the device.
The convenience stapler operates independently from the control panel and device software, and does
not automatically staple print jobs. The stapler requires no settings and generates no error messages
or status messages.
Staple media
Activate the convenience stapler by inserting media into the stapler.
1. Insert up to 20 sheets of media (80 g/m
2 or 20 lb) into the slot in the stapler door. Insert fewer
sheets to staple if the media weight is heavier than 80 g/m2 or 20 lb.
CAUTION Do not use the convenience stapler to  staple plastic, cardboard, or wood.
Damage to the convenience stapler can result  from attempting to staple these materials.
NOTEExceeding the recommended capacity could result in jams or damage to the stapler.
For information about reso lving a stapler jam, see 
Clear stapler jams.
2.Wait for the stapler to staple the sheets. When it  is inserted all the way into the stapler slot, the
media should trigger the stapler mechanism.
3. Remove the stapled media from the slot.
NOTE If you are unable to remove the media after stapling, carefully open the stapler door
and then slide your document out.
