Sending Jobs and Adjusting Fuser Temperature by Paper Type
The Elite 21 printer allows a paper type to be defined for each of the paper sources, using either the printer’s front control panel or WebAdmin to access the Paper Handling options on the unit. This feature serves two purposes. First, it allows users to send jobs to the printer by selecting the paper type they wish to print on, rather than knowing specifically which tray that type is in. For example, the Tray 2 Type setting on the printer can be set to Letterhead, then users can send jobs to the correct tray by selecting “Letterhead” as the paper type rather than “Tray 2” as the paper source. If the printer operator later wanted to move the Letterhead to Tray 3, the users could still send jobs to the correct source by specifying Letterhead as the paper type.
To send a job by specifying its paper source, follow the steps below. These steps specify how to set the printer up as if Letterhead was inserted in Tray 2:
1. Specify the Paper Type on the printer:
•Press Menu up or down until “Paper Handling” appears.
•Press Item up or down until “Tray 2 Type” appears.
•Press Value up or down until “Letterhead” appears.
•Press Select to confirm the selection.
•Press Menu until “Ready” appears on the printer’s display window.
2. Send the print job:
Macintosh:
•Open the document you wish to print. Go to the File menu and then down to Print.
•Under “Paper Source,” select “Letterhead” rather than any specific tray selection.
•Set any other print options for the job to the desired settings, and click Print to send the job.
Windows 95/98:
•Open the document you wish to print. Go to the File menu and then down to Print.
•Click on the Properties button in the Print window.
•Click the “Paper” tab in the Properties window, and click the “More Options...” button at the lower left of the Paper window.
•Under the More Paper Options window, set “Paper Type” to “Letterhead.”
•Click OK to accept, then Apply and OK to return to the Print window. Set any other print options for the job to the desired settings, and click OK to send the job.
