1 Feed orientation indicates how the MFP will place the image on the page, not whether the physical page will be short- edge or long-edge oriented.

2 Short-edge Printing must be enabled for the MFP to recognize letter or A4 size print media loaded in the short-edge orientation. For more information, see Loading Letter or A4 size print media in the short-edge feed orientation.

3 The feed orientation for Universal is actually variable.
