Set Paper Type and Paper Size

If you have set Paper Type and Paper Size to the correct values, any trays containing the same type and size of paper are automatically linked by the printer.

Note: If the type of the media you are loading is the same as the media previously loaded, you do not need to change the Paper Type setting.

To change a Paper Type or Paper Size setting:

1Press Menu until you see Paper Menu, and then press Select.

2Press Menu until you see Paper Type (or Paper Size), and then press Select.

Tray 1 Type (or Tray 1 Size) appears on the second line of the display.

3Press Select if you want to change the Tray 1 Type (or Tray 1 Size) setting or press Menu to scroll to another source.

4Press Menu to scroll through a list of possible paper types (or sizes).

5When you see the correct paper type (or size), press Select to save the setting as the default.

6Press Go to return the printer to the Ready state.

Printing on specialty media (transparencies, labels, and so on)

Follow these instructions when you want to print on media such as transparencies, card stock, glossy paper, labels, or envelopes.

1Load the print media as specified for the tray you are using. See “Load paper or other print media” on page 1 for help.

2From the printer operator panel, set the Paper Type and Paper Size according to the print media you loaded. See Set Paper Type and Paper Size for help.

3From the computer’s software application, set the paper type, size, and source according to the media you loaded.

a In your word processor, spreadsheet, browser, or other application, select File Print.

b Click Properties (or Options, Printer, or Setup, depending on the application) to view the printer driver settings.

c Select the tray containing the specialty media from the Form Source list box.

d Select your media type (transparencies, envelopes, and so on) from the Media Type list box. e Select the size of the specialty media from the Form Type list box.

f Click OK, and then send your print job as usual.

1454, 1464 specifications

The IBM 1454 and 1464 are notable computing systems that have played a significant role in the evolution of technology. Introduced in the 1960s, these systems were part of IBM's early foray into mini-computers, which aimed to provide more accessible computing power compared to their larger mainframe counterparts.

The IBM 1454, which was designed with an emphasis on flexibility and adaptability, featured a modular architecture that allowed for various configurations based on user needs. It supported multiple programming languages, which made it versatile for a range of applications, from scientific calculations to business data processing. One of its main features was the capability to interface with peripheral devices, showcasing an early attempt at creating a more interconnected computing environment.

On the other hand, the IBM 1464 was an advancement over the 1454, boasting enhanced processing capabilities and memory management. It was specifically engineered for real-time applications, which was becoming increasingly important in industries such as telecommunications and manufacturing. The 1464 incorporated improved input/output operations, enabling faster data processing and more efficient use of hardware resources. This made it suitable for complex tasks that required immediate processing and feedback.

Both models utilized IBM’s proprietary technologies, including a unique assembly language and input/output channels that optimized data flow between the CPU and peripherals. They were also equipped with magnetic core memory, which, while basic by today's standards, was a cutting-edge feature at the time, providing both speed and reliability.

In terms of characteristics, the IBM 1454 and 1464 were compact for their time, designed to fit into space-constrained environments such as laboratories and business offices. They also came with comprehensive documentation and support, reflecting IBM's commitment to customer service and user education.

In summary, the IBM 1454 and 1464 were pivotal in defining the landscape of mini-computing during their era. With their modular designs, robust processing capabilities, and support for real-time applications, they laid the groundwork for future advancements in computer technology. Their legacy continues to influence modern computing systems, making them critical milestones in the history of information technology.
