If tray T1 runs out of paper, the press stops printing. When this happens, any printed output leaving the press is delivered to the inline finishing device output tray.

Tip: Do not reuse the output that is ejected by the purge function as this may cause paper jams.

To prevent the purge function from occurring when tray T1 runs out of paper, the function may be disabled or switched off from the press Tools mode.

The purge function allows you to specify how the press behaves when tray T1 is used.

Important: The following procedure must be performed by a system administrator with press administrator login authority.

  1. Log in as the administrator.

  2. Press the Tools button on the press control panel.

  3. From the screen that displays, select the Tools icon.

  4. Select System Settings > Common Service Settings.

  5. Select Maintenance. The Maintenance screen displays.

  6. Use the up/down arrows to scroll through the Maintenance screens until you see “Print Action When Using Tray T1 (Inserter).”

  7. Select Print Action When Using Tray T1 (Inserter). The Tray T1 purge function screen displays.

  8. Select the desired purge function option:

    • Standard: Select this option to switch off the purge function. It decreases productivity, but the press continues to run even when tray T1 runs out of paper. This may cause some printed output sets to be delivered to the designated finishing tray without inserts.

    • Speed First: This setting maintains productivity. Select this option to have the press stop printing and purge paper when tray T1 runs out of paper.

      Note: Speed First is the default setting.

  1. Select Save or OK. The Maintenance screen displays.

  2. Select Close. The main Tools tab screen displays.

  3. Exit the administrator mode.
