You must select the size of the media

Items

before using Tray 1 or the optional

Envelope Feeder since they do not have a

 

 

 

 

sensor for identifying paper size . If either

 

 

is being used, you will also have a menu

 

 

item for media size.

 

 

 

 

 

3 Press [+] repeatedly to scroll through

 

 

 

 

+

 

the media type options.

 

 

 

 

4 Press [Select *] to choose the type of

 

 

media you loaded in the tray.

If you want to select the media for your job by type, and not by the paper tray (source), you will have to set the type value for each tray on the printer control panel, and in the printer driver. See

Select *Chapter 3 for information on accessing the printer driver.

Selecting media by type rather than source is similar to locking out the tray(s). If you have letterhead loaded in Tray 1, and you select to print on plain paper in your driver, the printer will not pull the letterhead paper from Tray 1. However, it will pull from one of the other trays if plain paper is loaded, and has been set on the printer control panel.
