Printer output paths Output bin and straight-through output path The output bin is located between the scanner and the printer. Printed media is collected here in the correct sequence when the straight- through output door is closed. Use the output bin when printing normal and large collated documents. The straight-through output path is useful when you are printing envelopes, transparencies, heavy media, or any media that tends to curl when printed. Printed media exits in reverse order when the straight-through output door is open. Figure 9. Output bin and straight-through output path Note Printed media does not stack when you use the straight-through output path.
The media drops to the surface below unless you remove each sheet as it exits the printer. 54 Chapter 2 - Operation EN
