Work with trays

By default, the printer draws paper from Tray 1. If Tray 1 is empty and Tray 2 is installed and contains paper, the printer draws paper from Tray 2.
You can change the behaviors using the following features:
Default Tray: Set the default tray from which the printer draws paper rst when paper of the same size is loaded in both Tray 1 and Tray 2.
Tray Lock: Lock a tray to prevent it from accidental use; for example, when you have loaded special paper (such as letterhead or preprinted paper).
The printer will not use a locked tray even when the other tray is empty.
NOTE: For better experience, load only one type of paper in a tray.
NOTE: Tray 2 supports only plain paper.

Have paper loaded in both trays and use paper from one tray if the other tray is empty.
