Huh?
TECHINFO-0020930
TOPIC
We have a LaserWriter 12/640 PS and are unable to select the face-up output tray when we print Legal-sized pages. When I attempt to select the Face-Up tray in the Print dialog, it is dimmed. We have tried various versions of LaserWriter 8 printer driver including the latest v8.4.2, and have also tried this with and without a duplexer. Is this a supported feature with Legal-sized pages?
DISCUSSION
The LaserWriter 12/640 PS User's Guide on page 184 "Selecting the output tray" states:
Note: You cannot direct the output to face-up when duplex printing. You cannot direct U.S. legal-size paper to the face-up output."
The face-up tray cannot accommodate a legal-sized page. Because of this, it was decided that limiting the face-up tray for use with legal-sized pages would be a more elegant solution than having the paper fall off the tray.
