2 Use the Size Detection menu item in the Paper Menu to configure your trays to support either B4 and A3 size paper or legal and 11x17 size paper. See page 21 for more information.

Paper sizes Your printer supports a wide variety of paper sizes. Some paper sizes feed from the trays short edge first, and others feed long edge first. This affects the print speed, as well as the proper positioning of letterhead or other preprinted paper in the trays. See the ”Paper size specifications” table on page 73 for details. Refer to the Setup Guide for illustra- tions of proper paper orientation in the trays.

The printer determines the size paper loaded in the trays by the position of the rear paper guide. Since the printer can only recognize A3 and B4 size paper or 11x17 and legal size paper, you must decide which paper sizes you want your trays to support. Then choose the appropriate setting from the Size Detection menu item. You can still load the paper sizes you don’t select in the multipurpose feeder.
