Setting Paper on the Bypass
Tray

This section gives instructions for set­ting paper on the bypass tray. Use the
bypass tray to print onto OHP trans­parencies, labels, thick paper, and en­velopes that cannot be loaded in the
paper tray.

Reference

For setting paper in the regular pa­per tray, see General Settings Guide.

Note

❒ When loading letterhead paper,

take care with its orientation. See
“Orientation-Fixed Paper or Two­Sided Paper”, General Settings
Guide.

❒ Paper within the following dimen-

sions can be set in the bypass tray:

• Vertical: 100.0-297.0 mm (3.93
in-11.69 in.)

• Horizontal: 148.0-600.0 mm
(5.83 in.-23.62 in.)

• Rotating Collate

• Staple (when the optional unit is

installed)

• Punch (when the optional unit
is installed)

Important

❒ When printing using the printer

function, original images are al­ways rotated by 180 degrees (the
orientation of images to be printed
is opposite to that of the copier
function). When printing onto pa­per with specific orientation re­quirements, such as envelopes and
letterheads, make sure to rotate the
paper feed orientation to 180 de­grees.

❒ Make sure to set the paper size us-

ing the printer driver when print­ing data from the computer. The
paper size set using the printer
driver has priority over the one set
using the display panel.

Open the bypass tray.

AAAA

❒ Be sure to set the paper with the

side you want to print facing down
in the bypass tray.

❒ When loading OHP transparencies

or thick paper in the bypass tray,
make the paper setting using the
control panel or the printer driver.

❒ The number of sheets that can be

loaded in the bypass tray depends
on the paper type.

Limitation

❒ The following functions are dis-

abled when printing from the by­pass tray:

• Duplex Printing

• Auto Tray Select

• Auto Tray Switching

❖❖❖❖ PCL printer drivers

Two kinds of PCL printer drivers:
PCL 6 and PCL 5e, are included on
the CD-ROM that comes with this
machine. These drivers allow the
computer to communicate with
the machine via a printer lan­guage. We recommend PCL 6 as
your first choice.

Note

❒ Some applications may require

installation of the PCL 5e print­er driver. In this case, you can
install PCL 5e without having to

install PCL 6.
See p.17 “Installing the PCL 6/5e
and RPCS™ Printer Driver”

❖❖❖❖ RPCS™ printer driver

The RPCS™ printer drivers are in­cluded on the CD-ROM that comes
with this machine. This printer
driver allows the computer to
communicate with the machine via
a printer language. The preset type
user interface is provided in addi­tion to the conventional one.
See p.17 “Installing the PCL 6/5e
and RPCS™ Printer Driver”

❖❖❖❖ Adobe PostScript 3 Printer Drivers

and PPD files

The Adobe PostScript 3 printer
drivers and the PPD files are in­cluded on the CD-ROM that comes
with this machine. This printer
driver allows the computer to
communicate with the printer via a
printer language. The PPD files al­low the printer driver to enable the
printer specific functions.

3 Printer Driver”
