    Why can't I set the paper size for a paper tray on my Sharp All in One Printer?

      You cannot set the paper size for a paper tray on your Sharp All in One Printer if copying or printing is in progress, the machine has stopped temporarily due to running out of paper or a misfeed, or an interrupt copy job is in progress. Set the paper size after these processes are complete by loading paper or removing the misfeed, and after the interrupt copy job is finished.
