Switching the Paper Source to Match the Purpose
Switching the Paper Source to Match the Purpose
In this machine, there are two paper sources, a rear tray and a cassette.
You can facilitate printing by selecting a paper source setting that matches your print conditions or
purpose.
The procedure for setting paper source is as follows:
1.
Open the printer driver setup window
2.
Select the paper source
From the Paper Source list on the Main tab, select the paper source that matches your purpose.
Automatically Select
Plain paper whose Page Size is Letter 8.5"x11", A5, A4, or B5 is fed from the cassette. Other sizes of
plain paper and paper types other than plain paper are fed from the rear tray.
Rear Tray
Paper is always fed from the rear tray.
Cassette
Paper is always fed from the cassette.
Important
Plain paper that is not Letter 8.5"x11", A5, A4, or B5 and paper types other than plain paper
cannot be fed from the cassette.
Continuous Autofeed
If plain paper runs out in the specified paper source, the printer automatically switches the paper
source.
When printing a large volume of data, load plain paper of the same size in both paper sources. You
can therefore reduce the trouble of having to load paper because the printer automatically switches
the paper source when paper runs out in one paper source.
Important
Continuous Autofeed is unavailable when paper other than Plain Paper is selected for Media
Type.
Since the printer feeds paper from the paper source that was being used the last time
Continuous Autofeed was selected and printing ended, load the same paper in both the rear
tray and the cassette.
