Understanding the paper type sensor

Your All-In-One has a paper type sensor that detects these paper types:

•Plain paper

•Coated paper

•Glossy/photo paper

•Transparencies

If you load one of these paper types, the All-In-One detects the paper type and automatically adjusts the paper type settings and print resolution.

Note: Your All-In-One cannot detect the paper size. For help, see page 13.

To choose the paper size:

1With your document open, click File Print.

2In the Print dialog box, click Properties, Preferences, Options, or Setup (depending on your program or operating system).

The Print Properties screen appears.

3From the Paper Setup tab, select the paper size you are using.

4Click OK.
