    Paper SizePosition of the Paper Selection Lever
    A3, B4, A4, B5, A5, 16K
    Ledger, Legal, Letter, Executive, Statement, Foolscap, 8K, Custom paper size

    2. Rotate the paper size dial to match the size of the loaded paper.

    NOTE:
    For Statement/8K/Custom Size Paper
    • Adjust the paper size dial to "Custom."

    In the Printer Status Window, you need to configure the paper settings according to the paper loaded in the paper drawer. Make sure to change the paper settings when you load a different paper from the previously loaded paper.
    IMPORTANT
    If the settings do not match the size and type of loaded paper, a paper jam or printing error may occur.

    1. Select the machine by clicking in the system tray.

    2. Select [Options] [Device Settings] [Paper Source Settings].

    3. Specify the paper settings in [Drawer 1] to [Drawer 4], and click [OK].
    [Paper Size]
    When the paper size dial of the paper drawer is set to "Custom," select the paper size that matches the loaded paper.
    NOTE:
    To make the paper size setting for the paper loaded in a paper drawer, use the paper size dial of that paper drawer.
    [Paper Feed Direction]
    When using custom size paper, select the paper feed direction (paper orientation) for the paper loaded in the paper drawer.
    NOTE:
    When you have loaded the paper in landscape orientation, select the [Feed Custom Paper Horizontally] check box in the [Paper Source] tab of the printer driver before proceeding to printing.
    [Paper Type]
    Select the paper type matching the loaded paper. For details on the paper type, see "e-Manual" (HTML manual) in the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM supplied with the printer.
    NOTE:
    About [Free]
    If you frequently change paper to use, you can select the [Free] setting so that you can save time and labor for changing the settings every time. In this case, however, some attention is needed because you will be printing without checking the paper type specified on the printer driver.
