Choosing a Paper Size

The printer can feed several sizes of paper automatically. Whenever possible, use your software settings to choose the paper size you require for your print job. If you cannot select the paper size with your application program, you can use the SelecType PAGE SIZE option.

Note: If you are using the optional lower paper cassette, see Chapter 3 for instructions on selecting a paper size.

The table below lists all of the paper sizes on the SelecType menu. The most commonly used paper sizes are marked on the manual- feed tray.

If you use one paper size most of the time and you cannot select paper size with your software, you can use the SelecType SAVE MACRO option to save your paper size setting. The printer then selects this paper size whenever you turn on, reset, or initialize it. See Chapter 3 for details.
