LARGE CAPACITY TRAY

Overview

Use the large capacity tray for outputting massive prints that cannot be processed using the regular tray.
  • Large capacity tray (MX-LC15) stores a maximum of 3,500 sheets of 8-1/2" × 11" and A4 paper.
  • Large capacity tray (MX-LC16) stores a maximum of 3,000 sheets of paper from 13" × 19" (A3W) to 8-1/2" x 11" (A4).
When changing the paper size, contact your dealer or "SHARP Service Department".
If you loaded paper of a different type from the paper previously loaded, be sure to check the settings in "Setting mode".
To check the type of paper to be set in the tray:
In "Setting mode", select [System Settings] → [Paper Tray Settings].
Do not place heavy objects on the tray or press down on the tray.
