Setting Paper Size

You can use three sizes of paper for printing your faxes—letter, legal and A4. When you change the kind of paper you have loaded in the FAX/MFC, you will need to change the setting for paper size, so your machine will know how to fit the incoming fax on the page. You can also select the level of page reduction to fit on the paper in your machine.
