Create a new media type

Tip We recommend that you do not modify the preset media types that came with your printer. You can copy a preset media type with characteristics that are similar to the new media that you want to use, and use the copy to create a new one before changing the settings. This means that you will only have to make changes to one or two parameters and you will not need to set new values for all of the parameters.

To create a new media type:

1.Press the ONLINE key.

2.Press the key to enter the MEDIA REG menu.

3.Scroll to the SELECT MEDIA menu with the and keys.

4.Press the OK key to select a media type number.
