When a print job is received by the printer, the sequence to
select the paper tray for each page is as follows:
1. Page size is established.
If page size is not sent by the application, the PCL Menu
setting called Paper Size is used.
2. Paper source is established.
If a paper source is sent by the application, it will be one
of the six PCL paper sources listed in Figure 2.16.
If paper source is not sent by the application, the PCL
Menu setting called Default Source is used. Some
software applications have a paper source called “Auto
Select” or “Auto Sheet Feed.” When used, this results in
a PCL paper source being omitted from the print job.
3. When the printer is ready to print the page, tray sequence
is established.
For the paper source chosen in the second step above, a
tray or sequence of trays is taken from the PCL Menu
Source Mapping setting for that source. For settings, see
Figure 2.18 (page 2-35) .
4. The printer searches in the tray or in any tray in the tray
sequence for the correct page size from the first step
above.
In a tray sequence, the trays are searched left to right as
they appear in the Source Mapping setting. For example,
for sequence Up-Mid-Low, the upper tray is searched
first, the middle tray second, and the lower tray third.
5. If a tray with the correct paper size is found, the page is
printed from that tray.
If no tray with the correct paper size is found, the tray
sequence and paper size are displayed on the Control
Panel along with a message to load the correct paper size.
