    The finisher shift tray moves backward or forward when a job or set is output, causing the next to shift, so you can separate them.

1Open the document that you want to print.

2Select [Print] on the [File] menu.

3Select [Copies & Pages] in the pop-up menu, and then clear the [Collate] check box.

4Select [Group3] in the [Features Sets:] pop-up menu.

5Select the [Collate] check box.

6Print the document using the print function in the document’s native application.

Note

  • If the application has its own collate function, disable it. This will allow the printer to apply its own collate function.

  • If the destination output tray supports the shift function, output sheets will be shift-collated.
