Configure Media

Load New Media

Before the printer will accept a print job, it must be configured for a specific media type. The currently-configured media type, if any, is displayed in the upper left corner of the control panel.

You can load a new media type (see the following procedure), or reload the previously loaded media (see “Reload Media” on page 2-9).

1.To load a different media type from the type displayed on the control panel, from the Front Page screen, press the Load Media or Load New Media key.

The Select Media to Load menu appears. The list of media ends with the option Create Media Type.

Tip

Start by using one of the standard media types. If

 

you are not using a standard media type, select the

 

standard media type that most closely matches the

 

media you are using. Then only if necessary, create

 

a new media type using the standard type you

 

selected as a starting point, and adjust it as needed.

 

 

2.Press a media name, or Create Media Type.
