Hi all,
Printing is set to specific papertray.
When its empty the printer choose one of other trays where its still paper.
How do you do to stop the printing and wait until I have loaded the right paper?
Hope someone know.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Per,
From the Setup Menu select System Setup, then select the Paper Setup menu.
Select Paper Out Action and ensure it is set as Wait Forever.
Also under Paper Setup, ensure the exact Paper Size is selected for both Trays 1 and 2, if any of the trays is set to Any Size the print job will persist from the other tray if the print job settings where set to automatically select a paper tray and not with a specific tray configured within the Printing Preferences dialog on your computer.
