Changing the paper type

This section describes how to set the paper type, load fanfold paper and single sheets, trans- port paper and move the paper to the tear position.

You can change the paper type either from an application program, by means of the paper path quick selection feature or in the Setup menu. In this section, the quick selection feature is described; for detailed information on how to make this setting via the Setup menu, refer to the Reference Manual on the Online CD-ROM.

On some printer models, the single sheet paper source cannot be selected since these models are not designed for manual single sheet feeding.
