NOTES:
1) When the Auto Cascade option is selected, the printer uses any of the selected paper trays when the first one runs out of paper. Auto Cascade works only if all paper trays in the set you select contain the same size paper. If one of the selected paper trays contains a different size paper, the LaserWriter Pro skips it.
2) If HPLJIIP is selected as the printer type, the printer always prints at 300 dpi and this menu selection has no effect.
3) Some settings can be selected using either the printer control panel or the printer software - for example the LaserWriter Utility program. The printer uses the most recent setting. For example, if you select 800 dpi resolution in the LaserWriter Pro utility software and then you select 600 dpi resolution on the control panel, the printer prints at 600 dpi.
