The trailing edges of excessively curled or Z-folded paper can activate the tray full sensors before the tray is actually full. When this occurs and the "Exit Tray Full" message appears, the job stops and cannot continue until some sheets are removed from the tray even though it is only partially full. The auxiliary trays, numbered [1], [2], and [3] on their undersides, are designed to prevent this problem.

Proof Support Tray (No. 1)

Set auxiliary tray 1 on the proof tray when using thin or soft paper that may not exit completely and may interfere with the tray full sensor.

Proof Auxiliary Tray (No. 2)

When using Z-folded paper or small-sized low-stiffness paper or short grain paper, the curl of the paper may cause the tray full sensor to signal tray full before the tray is actually full.

Set auxiliary tray 2 on the proof tray to prevent this.

Shift Auxiliary Tray (No. 3)

Set auxiliary tray 3 only when the Multi-Folding Unit is installed, especially when working with Z-folded paper.

  1. The pegs [A] on the bottom of this tray fit into the holes in the shift tray [B].
  2. When you set the tray, position feelers [1] and [2] on top of the tray.
  3. Confirm that the tray is perfectly flat on the shift tray below. There should be no gap between the trays.
