13 Linking bins If you attach an optional finisher or mailbox to your printer, you can link output bins, or otherwise specify how the printer sends jobs to the bins, by changing the Configure Bins settings in the Paper Menu. By default, the output bins for the finisher or the mailbox are configured in Mailbox mode. In this mode, you select an output bin when you send a job to print. (If you prefer, you can select a default output bin for all print jobs to go to.) The printer alerts you when the bin you selected becomes full, and stops printing until you empty the bin. If you prefer, you can change the Configure Bins setting to Link mode. All available bins are then linked so that when one bin becomes full, the printer sends jobs to the next linked bin. In Mail Overflow mode (only available if you've attached an optional mailbox), the printer automatically sends jobs to a preassigned overflow bin when the current bin becomes full. Type Assignment mode lets you assign different types of media to specific output bins or set of linked bins. The printer then sends all printed media to the bin or set of linked bins that you designated to receive each type of print media. To change the Configure Bins setting: 1 Press Menu until you see Paper Menu, and then press Select. 2 Press Menu until you see Configure Bins, and then press Select. Mailbox appears on the second line of the display. 3 Press Menu to scroll through the list of available configuration modes. 4 When you see the correct configuration mode, press Select to save the mode as the bin configuration default. 5 Press Go to return the printer to the Ready state. Note: The Select button selects the menu shown on the second line of the display. For more information, see Configure Bins and Bin Full. 39

Linking bins
If you attach an optional finisher or mailbox to your printer, you can link output bins, or otherwise
specify how the printer sends jobs to the bins, by changing the Configure Bins settings in the Paper
Menu.
By default, the output bins for the finisher or the mailbox are configured in Mailbox mode. In this mode,
you select an output bin when you send a job to print. (If you prefer, you can select a default output bin
for all print jobs to go to.) The printer alerts you when the bin you selected becomes full, and stops
printing until you empty the bin.
If you prefer, you can change the Configure Bins setting to Link mode. All available bins are then linked
so that when one bin becomes full, the printer sends jobs to the next linked bin.
In Mail Overflow mode (only available if you’ve attached an optional mailbox), the printer automatically
sends jobs to a preassigned overflow bin when the current bin becomes full.
Type Assignment mode lets you assign different types of media to specific output bins or set of linked
bins. The printer then sends all printed media to the bin or set of linked bins that you designated to
receive each type of print media.
To change the Configure Bins setting:
1
Press
Menu
until you see Paper Menu, and then press
Select
.
2
Press
Menu
until you see Configure Bins, and then press
Select
.
Mailbox appears on the second line of the display.
3
Press
Menu
to scroll through the list of available configuration modes.
4
When you see the correct configuration mode, press
Select
to save the mode as the bin
configuration default.
5
Press
Go
to return the printer to the Ready state.
Note:
The
Select
button selects the menu shown on the second line of the display.
