The output tray moves downwards during the print process to give space to the growing stack of output.
The workflow profile determines to which output trays PRISMAsync sends printed output. When an output tray has reached its limit, the printed output automatically goes to the next available tray. If all available output trays have reached their stacking limits, the printing process stops. Remove all printed output from the output trays. The output trays move upwards, and print process resumes.
Use the Settings Editor to turn high-volume stacking for the professional stacker / stapler on or off. Make sure you turn this setting off when you use media that are not supported for high-volume stacking, for example envelopes. Otherwise, the control panel will display a message that settings are conflicting.
