Setting Paper Types and Sizes
Setting Paper Trays
When loading paper in Tray 2 or the 550-Sheet Feeder with Cabinet (optional), it is necessary to set the
paper type on the control panel.
When loading paper in Tray 1 (MPT), set the paper size and type on the control panel when printing. When
MPT Mode has been set to Panel Specified (default) on the control panel, you can set the paper size and
type on the control panel.
This section describes how to set the paper size and type on the control panel.
Note: When you set MPT Mode to Panel Specified, printing will be performed only when the settings for
the paper size and type configured on the print driver match the settings on the control panel. When the
settings on the print driver and control panel do not match, follow the instructions displayed on the control
panel.
You can also display the message to set the paper size and type on the control panel every time you load
paper into each tray.
