Configuring input trays The MFP allows you to configure input trays by type and size. You can load different media in the MFP's input trays and then request media by type or size using the control panel. NOTE If you have used other HP LaserJet printer models, you might be accustomed to configuring Tray 1 to First mode or Cassette mode. On HP Color LaserJet 4730mfp series, setting Tray 1 size and type to ANY SIZE is equivalent to First mode. Setting size or type for Tray 1 to a setting other than ANY SIZE is equivalent to Cassette mode. NOTE If you are duplex printing, be sure that the media loaded meets the specifications for duplex printing. (See Supported media weights and sizes.) NOTE The instructions below are to configure the trays at the MFP control panel. You can also configure the trays from your computer by accessing the embedded Web server. See Using the embedded Web server. Configuring trays when the MFP gives a prompt In the following situations, the MFP automatically prompts you to configure the tray for type and size: ● When you load paper into the tray ● When you specify a particular tray or media type for a print job through the printer driver or a software application and the tray is not configured to match the print job's settings The control panel displays this message: LOAD TRAY XX: [TYPE] [SIZE], To change type touch Menu. The instructions below explain how to configure the tray after the prompt appears.

(Close the tray if you are using Tray 2, 3, or 4.) 2. The MFP displays the tray configuration message. 3. Touch OK. 4. Select the size.
