Printing Rotated Paper

The printer can print letter, A4, A5, Executive, and B5 (JIS) in a rotated orientation (short-edge first) from Tray 1. The printer can print letter and A4 in a rotated orientation from a 500-sheet tray. Rotated paper prints slower. Some types of paper feed better rotated, such as prepunched paper (especially printed on both sides with the optional duplexer) or labels that do not stack flat.

Tray 1:

1 From the Paper Handling Menu in the printer’s control panel, select TRAY 1 MODE=CASSETTE.

2Also from the Paper Handling Menu, select LTR-R, A4-R, A5-R, EXEC-R, or JB5-Ras the Tray 1 size.

3Load paper with the side-to-be printed facing up, and the top, short-edge toward the printer.

4In the printer driver or software application select the paper size as you normally would and select Tray 1.
