Useful printing features

Portrait and landscape printing

You can load paper into the printer in either portrait (upright) or landscape (widthwise) orientation, provided that the width of the paper does not exceed 11”. Hence, you can load Letter-sized paper in landscape orienta- tion, but not A4 paper.

Note: Although Letter-sized paper can be loaded into the printer in either landscape or portrait orientation, the print width is lim- ited to 8” (20.3cm).

If you are using Windows, you can choose between Por- trait and Landscape orientation using your application’s Printer Setup menu option,

Face-up and face-down printing

You can choose whether single-sheet printed output will be delivered face-up (only one page) or face-down (in sequential order). To do this, simply adjust the position of the paper delivery selector.

Push the paper delivery selector towards the back of the printer to select face-down printing. Pull it forward to select face-up printing.

Manual by-pass

If one type of paper is loaded in the paper tray, but you wish to print on a single sheet of paper of a different type (for example, a sheet of letter head paper), you can do so without unloading the paper already in the tray.

Insert the new sheet of paper into the printer in front of the tray cover and press the [PAPERJkey. The printer automatically feeds in the new sheet, ready for printing.

Note: If you are using letter head paper, you will need to put the sheet into the tray face down and upside down.
