2.3 CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS
2.3.1 PAPER SIZE/TYPE DETECTION AND SELECTION
The controller uses the paper sizes detected by the print engine for trays 1, 2, 3
and 4. For the by-pass tray, the user has to specify a paper size using the Job
Control menu in the Printer User Tools. Refer to section 1.1.2 for details on
supported paper sizes.
The paper type selection is available using User Tools (User Tools – 1. System –
14. Special Paper Indicator) for each paper tray.
When the printer controller receives a print job, the controller uses the paper size
specified in the PJL, PCL, or PS commands and the paper type specified in the
PCL or PS commands for printing.
2.3.2 PAPER SOURCE SELECTION
Auto Tray Select
The controller searches for the specified paper size and paper type, starting from
Tray 1, and uses the first tray that has the specified paper size and paper type. If
the selected tray is pulled out or paper runs out during printing, the controller
searches for another tray with the specific paper size and paper type then if found,
automatically switches to it. If the controller cannot find another paper tray with the
specified paper size and paper type, printing stops and the LCD displays the
message “Add Paper to Tray 1”.
When special paper has been selected for the 2nd paper tray, the 2nd paper tray is
not included in the auto tray search cycle.
