Changing the Load Paper Timeout
When your print job is formatted for a type or size of paper that is not loaded in the printer, the printer’s control panel displays a message requesting you to load the appropriate paper. The Load Paper Timeout value controls the amount of time the printer waits before printing on another type or size of paper. The default is 3 minutes.
To change the Load Paper Timeout value, use one of the following options:
■The printer’s control panel
■CentreWare IS
