Solution
When using Drawer 1 or the multi-purpose tray, you need to register the size of the loaded paper because this printer cannot automatically detect the paper size.
When using the optional paper drawer (Drawer 2), register a paper size only in the following cases because the optional paper drawer is configured to automatically detect the paper size by default.
- When loading Foolscap or 16K size paper
- When loading standard size paper again after using custom size paper
- When you want to specify [Mixed Sizes] which does not check the paper size.
Also, it is necessary to set the paper type to match the type of paper that is loaded.
Register the paper size using the following procedure. (The paper size setting is set to [A4] by default.)
NOTE
Precautions when specifying [Mixed Sizes]
- The printer performs printing without checking the paper settings in the printer driver.
Make sure that the paper specified in the printer driver matches that loaded in the paper drawer before using the printer.
- If you are using the UFR II printer driver, load custom size paper whose long edges are 215.9 mm or less in portrait orientation.
