Product basics
The HP 8-bin Mailbox (multibin mailbox [MBM]) makes it easier to share one printer among
several users that might be located in different departments or workgroups within a
network-shared environment. The MBM attaches to a printer or multifunction peripheral (MFP)
and provides multiple output bins that can be assigned to a user or a group of users.
The MBM can be used with any of these HP products:
●
HP LaserJet 9040 Series printers
●
HP LaserJet 9050 Series printers
●
HP LaserJet 9050mfp
●
HP LaserJet 9040mfp
●

Features
The MBM has the following features:
●
The MBM supports printing or copying output at up to 50 pages per minute (ppm).
●
The face-up bin (upper-left bin) can hold up to 125 sheets of 75 grams per square
meter (g/m
2
) (20-lb bond) paper. Jobs are stacked in reverse order.
●
The face-down bins can hold up to 250 sheets of 75 g/m
2
(20-lb bond) paper each. Jobs are
stacked in order.
●
You can use the MBM as a mailbox, stacker, job separator, or sorter/collator.
• Mailbox: The eight face-down bins can be assigned to a user or a group of users. All jobs
that a user or group of users sends are delivered to their assigned bin. This is the default
operation mode.
• Stacker: The MBM can act as a stacker. With the eight face-down bins, it can stack up to
2,000 sheets of 75 g/m
2
(20-lb bond) paper. Jobs are sent to the lowest available (empty)
bin. Large jobs might stack up into the next bin.
• Job Separator: Jobs are delivered to the first available (empty) bin (a job can include the
original and its copies), starting from the top bin to the bottom bin.
• Sorter/Collator: Copies of a single job are delivered to consecutive bins.
●
In addition to supporting all of the media that the output bins support, the face-up bin also
supports cardstock, envelopes, labels, and transparencies. For more information about
supported media, see
