NOTE:

11-13 Loading Paper

13.Set the paper size and media type levers for the paper you’re using.

For letter-size coated paper, set the levers as follows:

•Paper size: LTR

•Media type: Photo Quality Paper

The levers don’t directly affect print quality, but they allow your software to verify that the print option settings for a job are correct for the substrate you’re using. For more information about these settings, see Chapter 2.

When you set the paper size and media type levers, you should also use the paper size and media type cards to identify the substrate loaded in the tray. The cards help all users to be aware of what’s in the printer at a glance, and prevent anyone from inadvertently changing the lever settings. See Chapter 2 for more information about using the cards.
