Re: Proofing on the R2400

2006-02-22 by ginnylady33

Hi,

  Altho the driver DEFAULTS to the single feeder in the rear, after it
does, I merely set it back to the normal sheet feeder. (You then can
save the setting) I've never had a problem as long as you don't stack
the VFA. I usually only place one or 2 sheets in the normal feeder at
a time.
Best
Ginny
