Does this printer have 2 paper trays such that I can always have two different papers loaded in separate trays and chose which one to print from?

Sort of ... it has "Tray 1" that opens on the side and holds maybe 75 sheets and the main tray "Tray 2" that you see in the picture (bottom with the blue stripe). For a pretty large amount of money, you can buy a third tray that holds a lot of paper. Something important to note: there are several models of this printer ... best advice: get the one that duplexes the sheets. This will come in VERY handy.

2nd tray is a separate accessory - you can buy. Unit comes with just one tray that takes 500 sheets, and a single sheet feeder on the side.

Yes. It has a main tray on the bottom and a fold down multi purpose tray on the right side. I think you can add a tray to the bottom too.

Base unit has only one tray. A second tray (or third, I think) are options.

It has a paper tray in the front drawer that holds a whole ream of paper with a lever indicating how much paper is left. It also has a pull-out side paper tray on the right, useful for letterhead, legal size, card stock, and other specialty papers. You can place up to 40 sheets there.

If you install the Tray 3 option (Q6459A), you are unable to specify in the Printer Setup Utility that it is installed. It seems to be printing from that tray by default however. My Windows XP box sees Tray 3 and can switch between trays with no problem.

You can select 2-sided printing when using the printer, but you have to manually turn the paper over and place it back in the feed tray.

I wouldn't call it a tray. I've had that on other printers, and preferred it over the angled piece that stands paper up over the printer, as in this one. This works ok, though.

Yes there is a paper tray - looks to hold about 75 sheets or so. Very very nice printer for the price. Have had mine for 2 months now - no complaints.

Yes but the paper must be loaded in the rear tray 1 sheet at a time, more than one sheet will jam the printer.

Greetings - It's the extra paper tray. Likely not worth it...unless you have a glaring need to print different paper sizes and/or high volume.

I disagree here with the other answers. I have envelopes in Tray 1 and plain paper in Tray 2, then via the web interface I tell the printer what is in each tray. I've never had to choose during a print job, it just goes to the right tray for envelopes or letter size paper. Just for full disclosure this is on a 8630 and using a Mac. YMMV** Update ** This was done via the AirPrint driver, not the HP driver. See comment below on this for details.

Look at the users manual for the MFC8710DW printer. This will show you how to configure the printer tray to be recognized and configured to be used as a dual tray printer. The additional tray will allow for the use of both letter and legal size paper.

Yes, on the top of the paper tray is a slidey out thing, with a spring loaded catcher thingy. This happily takes your printouts and prevents them flying out of the printer.

Yes. That is what I have. Just lift up the printer and drop in on the new tray. The printer recognizes the tray immediately as tray 3 (which is marked on the front of the tray.) Then, go to the menu on the printer and configure the tray for the type and size of paper you will be using in it.

Yes, this printer's normal function is for one side... If you want 2 sided printing you must insert the page back into the paper tray, printed side up with the top of the page inserted first, close the tray then click print for the other side to print out.

It does, but it sometimes it causes paper jams. For me, the 110# stock seems to work better from Tray 1 than the multi-purpose tray. From the printer menu, under tray configuration you can specify 3 card stock types. I have yet to figure out what the 3 different options mean. I've guessed that card stock number 3 is the heaviest weight stock, so I usually use this setting. I have the best luck using the MP tray with 80# cover and feeding each sheet one at a time. Works perfectly every time this way.

It only accommodates one tray. You can manually expand it for legal paper, but you then have to reconfigure the tray for letter size. It's a great printer, works very nicely scanning wirelessly with excellent included software. The only negative, which is true with the wireless and non-wireless versions is that the bypass feed when used for envelopes is not always smooth or consistent.

This model comes with 2 paper trays. I believe the other one comes with only one b

We returned this printer because it does not have a manual feed tray. It just has a slot where you can feed paper or envelopes by hand o e at a time.

Yes it does and you can also have 2 other lines that are printed when you move your paper left or right.
