Lexmark 47B0113 Banner Media Tray

The Lexmark 47B0113 Banner Media Tray is a purpose-built accessory that expands the capabilities of your printer’s Multi Purpose Feeder (MPF). By seamlessly extending the feeding path, this tray enables automatic feeding of up to 50 sheets of 24 lb banner paper, helping you accelerate banner production for signage, events, promotions, and large-format communications. It also functions as an extended output tray, catching and presenting the printed banners as they exit the printer for quick inspection, sorting, or display. Built to endure busy office or production environments, the Banner Media Tray enhances workflow efficiency, reduces manual handling, and keeps banners neatly organized during high-volume print runs. With straightforward installation and solid construction, it’s an essential upgrade for teams that rely on consistent, high-quality banner output from Lexmark printers that support the MPF system.

• Automatic banner feeding for speed and efficiency: The Banner Media Tray integrates with the Multi Purpose Feeder to enable automatic feeding of up to 50 sheets of 24 lb banner paper. This reduces manual loading interruptions during long print runs and helps maintain a steady production rhythm for banners, signs, and promotional materials.
• Unified feeding and output extension: In addition to feeding, the tray doubles as an extended output tray. As banners print, they are guided onto the tray and held securely as they exit the printer, minimizing jams and clutter and allowing for immediate handling or bundling after printing.
• High-capacity banner handling: Designed specifically for banner media, the tray accommodates a substantial stack of 24 lb banner sheets, enabling uninterrupted print streams for signage campaigns, trade shows, and event displays without frequent replenishment.
• Durable, printer-friendly construction: Built to withstand regular use in a production or office setting, the tray features robust materials and precise alignment guides that ensure consistent performance and easy alignment with the MPF system for dependable results.
• Easy integration and maintenance: The Lexmark 47B0113 is designed for quick, tool-free installation, with compatibility focused on Lexmark printers that support the MPF. Once installed, it requires minimal maintenance to keep feeding smooth and output tidy for fast turnaround times.

How to Install Lexmark 47B0113 Banner Media Tray

Installing the Banner Media Tray is a straightforward process designed to minimize downtime and keep your printing workflow flowing smoothly. Before you begin, ensure the printer is powered off and unplugged, and have a clean workspace to confirm proper alignment with the MPF guides. Follow these steps to install the tray correctly and start enjoying automated banner feeding and extended output support:

• Power down the printer and unplug the power cord. Wait a moment to ensure all internal components have cooled and are safe to handle.
• Locate the Multi Purpose Feeder interface on the printer. Align the Banner Media Tray with the MPF guides and intake path, ensuring the connectors and rails line up with the corresponding slots.
• Gently slide the tray into place until you hear or feel a secure click indicating it’s locked onto the MPF mount and the output-extension area is aligned with the exiting path.
• Load up to 50 sheets of 24 lb banner paper into the tray, aligning the stack with the tray guides. Do not exceed the stated capacity to maintain smooth feeding and avoid jams.
• Close the printer’s printer cover and reconnect the power. Power on, run a test print, and verify that banners feed automatically from the MPF and exit neatly onto the extended tray without skew or misfeed.
