Paper settings
Paper Size and Type
To get the best print quality, set the machine for the type of paper you are using.
You can use eight sizes of paper for printing copies: Letter, Legal, Ledger, A4, A5, A3, Executive and 4 × 6 in. (10 × 15 cm) and five sizes for printing faxes: Ledger, Letter, Legal, A3 or A4. When you load a different size of paper in the machine, you will need to change the paper size setting at the same time so your machine can fit an incoming fax on the page.
