Setting the Paper Type
Setting the Paper Type
This printer is capable of printing under the optimum setting for the type of paper being used.
Setting the paper type for the paper source from the printer's control panel will cause the printer to automatically print in the mode best suited to that type of paper. This allows you to easily achieve high- quality printing results. A different paper type setting can be made for each paper source including the multipurpose tray. Not only can preset paper types be selected, but it is also possible for the user to define and select customized paper types.
The following types of paper can be set. For details on paper, please see Appendix B.
