Switching to Another Paper Feed Tray Automatically When a Tray Runs Out Of Paper

When the specified tray runs out of paper, the machine can continue to print from another tray if paper of the same paper size, weight and type is loaded in the paper cassettes (Tray 1/2/3) and the MP tray.

To use this function, enable the auto tray switching function on the touch panel first. Then, set the auto tray switching function with the printer driver.
