How do I get my 8600 premium printer to auto select between tray 1 and tray 2?

How do I get my 8600 premium printer to auto select between tray 1 and tray 2? Right now, i have to pull out tray 1 to get the printer to feed tray 2.

Hi Retrotriker,
Follow the steps below to properly configure your paper trays.
1. Touch (right arrow), touch Setup, touch Preferences, and then select Default Tray
2. Select Tray 2 as the Default tray
3. Open Printers and Faxes
4. Right click on printer, and then select Printer Properties
5. Click on Device Settings tab
6. On this screen set the media type you have assigned to each tray (Example: tray 1 - Envelopes & Tray 2 - Letter)
7. Click Apply, and then Ok
8. When you have an envelope you are printing it will pull from Tray 1
9. When you have a letter you are printing it will pull from Tray 2

  • 8600 Premium won't auto-select tray based on page size

    I just bought the 8600 Premium yesterday, and am absolutely flabbergasted to find that this printer, which is TOUTED for its full capability of handling legal-sized paper can't pick different sizes of paper from Tray 1 and Tray 2 in the same print job!!!  The printer recognizes Tray 2.  In fact, if I remove Tray 1, it prints from Tray 2 just fine.  However, I print a lot of .pdf files with a mixture of letter- and legal-sized pages.  I have used other printers where I can select "Choose paper source by PDF page size," and it will print the whole job, pulling letter-sized pages from Tray 1 and legal from Tray 2.  Why MAKE the 8600 Premium with two trays if it CAN'T pull paper from both trays, based on size settings, during the same job?!!

    Seriously?  --That is your "solution?!"
    Sure, if I needed a $1,000 printer only, I guess I could do that.  But I don't.  I need an inexpensive, truly functional dual-tray all-in-one.  I thought the HP8600 Premium was it.  Guess not.

  • How do i get the 8600 to print in only black ink?

    How do I set the HP Pro 8600 Plus to print only in black ink?  I have tried  the "enable" option for black ink only under Preferences/Advanced but it doesn't seem to work.  Still keeps printing in color.

    Did you set the Grayscale option to Black Ink Only?

  • How do I get to use my printer post script fonts in Illustrator and In Design

    I am running the CS2 Suite with Photo Shop, Illustrator, and In Design.  I have purchased a Xerox 8550 post script printer, and it comes with 40 really cool post script fonts. I know that Adobe uses the common files folder in program files to store the fonts, but it dosn't list the fonts that are resident in my printer.  Is there any way that I can tell the common files area that I have these resident fonts, if so, how?
    Thanks,
    Tom

    That would be up to the printer driver. When installed, it should create either a full set of PostScript fonts, a set of bitmap placeholder fonts or offer a way to manage fonts on the printer, including downloading them manually - if allowed. The driver is also the place where to look for font substitution rules. Double-check the manual/ help files for the printer, I'm sure it's explained somewhere...

  • How can I get Thunderbird to maintain the font I selected to compose and reply to email?

    If I type exactly right the first time, the font is OK. But, if I make a correction or addition, the font resets to "VARIED" size and something other than Cambria. I prefer the look of Cambria or something where the number "1" and capital "I" look different from the lowercase letter "l". Thanks for any help!

    my short answer is press enter 4 or 5 times as soon as you get into the editing area and then use the mouse to move the cursor back to the beginning. Not the best, but certainly the easiest way to gain some control.

    In using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional I have added oval shapes to a form, but they do not print.  How do I get all shapes to print?
    I am using a Dell PC with Windows 7 Professional as the Operating System.

    File > Page Setup = Scale
    The Scale control is what controls the size of what is printed to paper. 100% is usually the best setting.

  • How do you get word count to print at the end of a document in Pages?

    How do you get word count to print at the end of a document in Pages?

    Pages v5 does not provide a user assignable word count variable. With some AppleScript, and a paste operation from the clipboard, you can have locale punctuated word count in this format: 7,803 — anywhere in your document. The following AppleScript works with Pages '09 v4.3 through Pages v5.5.2 on Yosemite.
    I would suggest that you copy paste the following AppleScript into your [Apple] Script Editor and save it (suggestion) wordcnt.applescript. Then, follow this with an option+Save As… and this time set the File format to Script Bundle, or Application with hidden extension — saved to your Desktop. Provided you have a Pages document open, you are then a double-click from the ability to paste your current word count into Pages.
    Note: If you have Pages word count display enabled, it will automatically count your pasted value as another word which initially may deceive on true word count at the time the script was run.
    AppleScript
    --- copy below this line ---
    property locale : "en_US.UTF-8" -- In Terminal, use the locale command to see yours
    if not ApplicationIsRunning("Pages") then
         display dialog "Pages must be running to use this utility."
         return quit
    end if
    tell application "Pages"
        tell body text of front document
            set wordCnt to count words
            -- Don't want punctuated numbers? Remove the single quote from printf format
            set the clipboard to (do shell script "export LC_ALL=" & locale & "; printf \"%'d\" " & wordCnt)
        end tell
    end tell
    on ApplicationIsRunning(appName)
         tell application "System Events" to set appNameIsRunning to exists (processes where name is appName)
         return appNameIsRunning
    end ApplicationIsRunning
