Paper size and type
The following table describes the paper selection process based on whether you specify
the paper type (plain, letterhead, etc.), paper size, and/or paper source for the print job
(using the print driver). The fourth column shows which paper size and type are used,
based on fully or partially specified paper selection parameters.
Note
Specifying a paper source (a specific tray) doesnot guarantee that paper will be
fed from that tray if the type and size can be satisfied from another source. The
exception to this is a manual feed request, which always uses the MBF unless
you override this selection.
