Media Settings for Individual Print Jobs

If you are printing a job on special media, you can temporarily load the media in a tray and change the media settings for that tray in the driver as you print the job.

Ranges for Printer Media Weight Settings

Note: To determine if a paper weight is US Bond or Index, check the metric equivalent. e.g.,

35 lb. US Bond = 132 g/m2

35 lb. Index = 64 g/m2
