Simply placing your paper in the bypass tray, yelling out “Nobody Print!!” and then selecting “bypass tray” from your printer driver will not necessarily prevent the device from switching to a different tray if it runs out of your paper half-way through printing, or from someone else’s job printing on your special paper. Use the steps below to ensure proper printing every time.
1. Click File, Print and then Printer Properties (or Printing Preferences)to open the printer driver.
2. From the Basic tab select the Paper Type you wish to print on. Note: Leave the Paper Tray set to AUTO!
3. Select any other settings you need (eg. double siding, colour, etc).
4. Click Ok and then Print to send the job to the device.
5. At the device, when prompted,load your paper in the Bypass Tray as instructed. Press Complete on the screen (if required).
