4. PRINTING METHODS
The printer provides two types of printing method; printing from the paper cassette and printing
from the multi-purpose tray.
4.1 Printing from the Paper Cassette
You can load plain paper, recycled paper or transparencies into the paper cassette. If paper is
loaded into the paper cassette, the printer automatically feeds paper sheet by sheet and ejects
the printed page into the output tray.
For the details on cassette loading, refer to
subsection 3.1.2 ‘Load paper into the paper
cassette’ in this chapter and subsection 3.5 ‘Paper’ in CHAPTER 1 .
4.2 Printing from Multi-purpose Tray
You can feed bond paper, thick paper, labels, envelopes or cards as well as plain paper,
recycled paper or transparencies into the multi-purpose tray. (For details on feedable paper,
see subsection 3.5 ‘Paper’ in CHAPTER 1 .)
NOTE:
• For correct printing, the same paper size must be selected from within the software
application as the paper in the tray.
•
If the application software does not support paper size selection in its print menu, you can
change the paper size on the printer’s control panel under the PAPER menu. For more
information, see subsection 5. “CONTROL PANEL OPERATION” in this Chapter .
