Use the following table for help when loading letterhead in the paper sources. Orienting Letterhead Top of page Tray Tray 1 (250-sheet input tray) Tray 2 (optional 500-sheet drawer) Multipurpose feeder (including feeding individual sheets) Face up Print side Face down Portrait Front of tray (nearest tray handle) Landscape Left side of tray Rear of tray (enters the printer first) Left side of tray Tray Linking If you are using the same size and type of print material in all paper sources (input trays and the multipurpose feeder) and the PAPER MENU settings for the sources are the same, the automatic tray linking feature is enabled. For example, if you have the same size and type print material loaded in the standard 250-sheet tray and the optional 500-sheet drawer, the printer will select print material from one tray when the other becomes empty. If you load the same size print material in each tray, make sure the print material is all the same type. If you use different print material in the trays, each source with a different print material must have the PAPER TYPE set to a unique value to disable the automatic tray linking feature.
