Lists the current details for the Multi-Bin Mailbox. From this page you can set the mode, rename mailbox bins, and set the job output auto continue timeout for the device.

# 
The optional Multi-Bin Mailbox has three selectable modes: mailbox mode (the default), job separator mode, and stacker mode. In mailbox mode, the user can send print jobs directly to specific output bins (mailboxes). In separator mode, each new job goes into the next non-full bin. If a bin is full, the new job goes to the next available lower bin that is not full. When the last bin is full, the device returns to the top bin of the Multi-Bin Mailbox and works its way down as before as the bins fill up. In stacker mode, each job stacks on top of the previous job from the bottom up.

# 
In mailbox mode, users can select (from their software application) individual mailboxes as a destination for their print jobs. Mailboxes can be specified for an individual or for an entire group or department. Mailbox mode gives users the greatest control over where their print jobs go. If a job is too large to fit in the mailbox, it will continue printing to the overflow bin after the job output auto continue timeout has expired. By default, the overflow bin is the face down output bin at the top of the device.

# 
In job separator mode, each new print job goes into the next non-full bin. If a bin is full, the new job goes to the next available lower bin that is not full. When the last bin is full, the device returns to the top bin of the Multi-Bin Mailbox and works its way down as before as the bins fill up. Job separator mode is the most useful for environments where users print jobs and pick them up relatively quickly, and where there is not a high accumulation of print jobs. If the print job is too large to fit in one bin, the device will continue printing to the overflow bin after the job output auto continue timeout has expired. By default, the overflow bin is the face down output bin at the top of the device.

# 
Stacker mode is designed for high numbers of print jobs. In stacker mode, the first print job is placed in the bottom of the bottom bin and jobs are placed on top of each other. Jobs should be removed from the top of the stack down, so that the Multi-Bin Mailbox can correctly position the top of the stack. If the stacker fills up, the device will continue printing to the overflow bin after the job output auto continue timeout has expired. By default, the overflow bin is the face down output bin at the top of the device.

# 
Job output auto continue timeout allows you to specify what happens when an optional output bin becomes full: either immediately continue printing to the overflow bin (on the top of the device), wait for the specified timeout to expire before resuming printing to the overflow bin, or wait until the bin is emptied. The available timeout settings are: No Timeout, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, and Wait Forever.

# 
Lists the current mailbox names for each mailbox in the optional Multi-Bin Mailbox. Local names can be assigned to mailboxes for individuals or departments. These names appear in the user's printer driver as output destinations for print jobs. To change a mailbox name, click the name you want to change and type in the new name in the edit box. The currently selected mailbox appears in the illustration.
