Using MFP menus

Substitute Size

This menu item is used to determine whether the MFP can substitute another print media size if the requested size is not currently installed in any of the MFP sources. If, for example, Substitute Size is set to Letter/A4, and only letter-size paper is installed in the MFP when a request is received to print on A4 paper, the MFP substitutes letter for A4 and prints the job instead of showing a change paper request.
