Choosing the Correct Media Type Setting
Before printing, always check the Media Type setting in your printer software. See the table below for the setting you should use.
The printer uses the Media Type setting to adjust the ink coverage for the type of paper you are using.
The Media Type setting for your paper may not be the
same as the name of your paper. To be sure you are using the correct setting, see the table below or the instructions that came with your paper.

If any paper you buy comes with a cleaning sheet, don’t use the cleaning sheet with this printer; it may jam inside the printer.
The availability of paper types varies by location.
