Lexmark X746de User Manual

Make sure the paper type setting matches the paper loaded in the tray:

From the printer control panel Paper menu, check the paper type and paper size settings.

Before sending the job to print, specify the correct type setting:

For Windows users, specify the paper type from Print Properties.

For Macintosh users, specify the paper type from the Print dialog.

Make sure the printer is not in Hex Trace mode. If Ready Hex appears on the display, you must exit Hex Trace
mode before you can print your job. Turn the printer off and back on to exit Hex Trace mode.

Make sure the SmartSwitch settings are set to On in the Network and USB menus.

These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:

Load the same size and type of paper in each tray to be linked.

Move the paper guides to the correct positions for the paper size loaded in each tray.

Print a menu settings page and compare the settings for each tray.

If necessary, adjust the settings from the Paper Size/Type menu.

Note: The standard 550-sheet tray and the multipurpose feeder do not automatically sense the paper size. You
must set the size from the Paper Size/Type menu.

These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:

From the Finishing menu or Print Properties, set Collate to On.

Note: Setting Collate to Off in the software overrides the setting in the Finishing menu.

Reduce the complexity of the print job by eliminating the number and size of fonts, the number and complexity of
images, and the number of pages in the job.
