Xerox M118 User Manual

Slide the side guides towards the paper until they are just touching the edge of the 
stack.

The machine automatically switches from one tray to another under the following 
condition.

• When printing and the active tray runs out of paper.

• When the paper size sensed differs from the previously determined size.

• When paper feeding starts and the selected tray is open.

• When paper feeding starts and the selected tray malfunctions.
When [Paper Supply] is not set to [Auto] or no other target tray contains paper the same 
size, type and orientation, the machine stops printing and message “Tray X is out of 
paper” displays.
NOTE: Tray 5 (bypass tray) cannot be used with Auto Tray.

NOTE: Key Operator access must be set to [On] for [Auto Tray], and target trays and 
priorities must be specified. For more information, refer to Auto Tray and Tray Priority 
in the Setups chapter on User Guide.

When not in use, the paper trays can be opened and paper can be loaded while the 
machine is running. However, do not open the active tray. This will cause the machine 
to stop.

Always use high-quality, xerographic-grade paper in the machine. Damaged, curled, or 
damp paper can cause jams and image quality problems. Follow these simple rules to 
store paper:

• Store paper in dry conditions, away from extreme heat or cold, such as radiators or 

open windows.

• Store paper flat on a shelf or pallet above floor level.

• Leave the paper wrapped and boxed until ready to be used.

• Re-wrap partly used packages of paper.
NOTE: Paper should not be stored in the paper trays.

This section lists the sizes and types of paper that can be used with the machine.
