= SUMMARY =

The following is information necessary for printing from the lower cassette on the Hewlett-Packard (HP) LaserJet series IIP. The lower cassette on the HP IIP supports the following five different trays:

Tray Paper Size (in inches) —- ———————-

Letter 8.5 x 11 Legal 8.5 x 14 A4 8.27 x 11.7 Exec 7.25 x 10.5 Envelope from 3.8 x 7.4 to 6.4 x 10

Note: The envelope tray supports predefined envelope sizes COM-10, Monarch, DL, and C5, as well as custom-size envelopes in the range listed above.

The HP LaserJet IIP can recognize the following eight different paper sizes:

Size Dimensions (in inches) —- ———————-

Letter 8.5 x 11 Legal 8.5 x 14 A4 8.27 x 11.7 (210mm x 297mm) Exec 7.25 x 10.5 Monarch 3.875 x 7.5 Com10 4.125 x 9.5 DL 4.3 x 8.67 (110mm x 220mm) C5 6.37 x 9 (162mm x 229mm)

To print each size of paper from the lower cassette, you must have the appropriate tray.

The IIP can determine what type of tray is installed in the lower cassette. You do not need to select a size in the JOB SIZE menu, but the JOB SIZE should match the size of paper in the tray.

The lower cassette can be used alone or in conjunction with the MP tray. This option is set in the TRAYS menu, as follows:

Set TRAYS to: If You Want: ————- ————

LC ONLY Only paper source is LC LC TRAY Default paper source is LC Optional paper source is MP MP TRAY Default paper source is MP Optional paper source is LC BOTH Paper drawn from MP tray when LC tray is empty

When you send a print job from Word and you are feeding paper from the lower cassette tray, the IIP checks the paper size specified by Word against the paper size loaded in the lower cassette (if the dimensions specified by Word do not match a predefined paper size, the IIP substitutes the next largest paper size). If the two sizes are different, the IIP will display an error message “Load ” where is the size specified by Word.

To correct this problem, set the page length and width (Format Division Margins menu) to correspond to the dimensions of the paper size loaded into the lower cassette.
