Printing by Type and Size of Paper<br />
You can configure the printer to select paper by type (such as plain or<br />
letterhead) and size (such as letter or A4), as opposed to source (a<br />
paper tray).<br />
Benefits of Printing by Type and Size of Paper<br />
If you frequently use several different kinds of paper, once trays are<br />
set up correctly, you do not have to check which paper is loaded in<br />
each tray before you print. This is especially helpful when the printer<br />
is shared and more than one person loads or removes paper.<br />
Printing by type and size of paper is a way to be sure that print jobs<br />
always print on the desired paper. (Some printers have a feature that<br />
“locks out” trays to prevent printing on the wrong paper. Printing by<br />
type and size of paper eliminates the need to lock out trays.)<br />
To print by type and size of paper, do the following:<br />
1 Be sure to adjust and load the trays correctly. (See the sections<br />
on loading paper, starting on page 77.)<br />
2 From the Paper Handling Menu in the printer’s control panel,<br />
select the paper type for each tray. If you are unsure what type<br />
you are loading (such as bond or recycled), check the label on the<br />
package of paper. For supported types, see page 60.<br />
3 Select the paper size settings from the control panel.<br />
• Tray 1: If custom paper is loaded, set the size of custom paper<br />
from the Printing Menu to match the paper loaded in tray 1.<br />
• Other trays: Paper size settings are adjusted when paper is<br />
properly loaded into the printer. (See the sections on loading<br />
paper, starting on page 77.)<br />
