Canon BJ-200ex manual Specifying Print Options, Automatically Feeding Paper

When you want to print a multiple page document, load a stack of papers in the sheet feeder. The printer automatically feeds each sheet when your software application tells it to start printing the page. How you actually print from within a program is dependent on the application. For example:

§In Microsoft Word for Windows, you select the Print command from the File menu.

§In Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, you select the Print command from the Command menu.

See your application's documentation for details.

Specifying Print Options

For each print operation, you need to specify certain print functions in the printer driver. For example, you need to identify the size and type of paper you are printing on and that the paper is being loaded automatically from the sheet feeder. Your default settings may match the current print operation. If the print options for the current print operation are different from the default settings, you can change them from within your application.

For example:

§In Microsoft Word for Windows 2.0, you can select Print Setup from the File menu and then select Setup from the Printer Setup dialog box. Windows displays the Canon BJ- 200ex Setup dialog box in which you can define all your printer settings. See Chapter 4, Using the Printer With Your Software, for complete details on the printer settings you select using the Windows printer driver.

§In Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, you canselect Print from the Command menu, and then select Options from the Print menu. The Print Options menu then allows you to define your printer settings.

After making your print selections, you can prepare the printer for automatically feeding paper.

Automatically Feeding Paper

You can place approximately 100 sheets of plain paper (20 lb or 75 g/m²) in the sheet feeder at a time. (For instructions on automatically feeding special paper, see Printing on Special Papers later in this chapter.)

To automatically feed plain paper, follow these steps:

1.Make sure the paper thickness lever is left for printing on normal paper.
