HP LaserJet M775z

Hello,

 

I have a M775z configured to use another tray, so if one A4 tray is empty, the printer will take paper from another A4 tray. Is there an option to specify which trays this applies to? Say I have A4 paper with the company logo in Tray 2 and white A4 paper in Tray 3 and Tray 4. Is there the option to specify that the printer should only autoselect from Tray 3 and 4 for A4 jobs and don't consider Tray 2?

 

Thanks

 

Florian

Print requests usually select the required tray using a combination of Paper Size and Paper Type (with tray selection set to Printer Auto-Select), rather than selecting a specific tray via its identifier.

 

Configure the printer so that it knows there are different Paper Types in the different 'sets' of trays.

 

For example, type = Letterhead for tray 2, and type = Plain for trays 3 and 4.
