Using the standard exit bin and paper stop
The standard exit bin holds up to 150 sheets of 20 lb paper. It collects print jobs facedown. The standard exit bin
includes a paper stop that keeps paper from sliding out the front of the bin as it stacks. The paper stop also aids in
neater stacking of the paper.
To open the paper stop, pull it so it flips forward.

Notes:
Do not leave the paper stop in the open position if you are printing on transparencies. Doing so may cause
creases in the transparencies.
When moving the printer to another location, make sure the paper stop is closed.
