Hello, in order to continue printing from the second tray when the first one is empty, both trays need to have the same paper size, paper type, and paper settings. If any of the settings are different between the trays, the auto continue feature won't work.

To use the auto continue feature with different-sized paper, you can enable the "Substitute Size" feature. Information about this setting can be found on page 78 of the user guide.
