Paper Handling menu

If paper-handling settings are correctly configured at the printer control panel, you can print by selecting the type and size of media in the program or the printer driver. For more information about configuring for media types and sizes, see Controlling print jobs. For more information about supported media types and sizes, see Supported media sizes and Paper specifications.

Some items on this menu (such as duplex and manual feed) are available in the program or the printer driver (if the appropriate driver is installed). Program and printer-driver settings override control-panel settings. For more information, see Printer drivers.
