Sorter Modes
There are three sorter modes available. These modes are selected in the Basic tab:
Collating
•
Collating in sorter mode produces the specified number of copies as 
complete sets of documents in each tray.
•
The document is printed following the page order and received in 
each tray. The number of document copies must not exceed the 
number of trays. If a tray becomes full, the printing system pauses 
and shows a message to remove the paper from the tray. After the 
paper is removed, printing resumes for the remaining number of 
copies.
Non-collating
•
Non-collating mode produces the specified number of copies but 
divides the document for output in each tray, with page 1 in tray 1, 
page 2 in tray 2, and so on. For example, printing 20 copies of a four 
page document using grouping produces 20 copies of page 1 in tray 
1, 20 copies of page 2 in tray 2, and so on.
•
The number of document copies must not exceed the sheet 
capacity of any tray. When a tray reaches capacity, the printing 
system pauses and shows a message to remove the paper from the 
tray. In addition, the maximum document page length must not 
exceed the number of sorter trays. When a tray reaches capacity, 
the printing system pauses and shows a message to remove the 
paper from the tray.
Mailbox
•
The mailbox mode sends copies to specified user trays, which is 
useful when the printing system is shared among different users.
For example, specifying tray 5 sends the printed document to tray 5.
•
When a tray reaches capacity, the printing system pauses and 
shows a message to remove the paper from the tray.
•
Mailbox is a physical mailbox.
