Abstract

A high speed electronic printing system in which the number of paper trays for supplying print media is substantially less than the number of different print media selections that can be programmed for each print job, with a system for identifying missing print media while printing together with an available paper tray into which the print media can be loaded to allow uninterrupted processing of print jobs.
