5. Lower the output tray.

Configure trays
NOTE: Tray 2 is sold as an accessory. For ordering information, see HP supplies
and accessories.
To configure trays, you must have Tray 2 installed and turned on in the printer
driver.
By default, the device draws media from Tray 1. If Tray 1 is empty, the device draws
media from Tray 2 (if it is installed and loaded with media). You can change this
default setting by using the following features:
• Tray Lock: Use this feature to protect special media such as letterhead or
preprinted media from accidental use. If the device runs out of media while printing
a document, it will not use media from a locked tray to complete the print job.
• Default Tray: Use this feature to determine the first tray from which the device
draws media.
NOTE: To use the Tray Lock and Default Tray settings, you must select the
automatic tray selection option in the device software. If the device is on a network
and you set a Default Tray, the setting will affect all users of the device.
Tray 2 is designed to hold only plain paper.
The following table lists possible ways you can use the tray settings to meet your
printing needs.
