Size Sensing
The Size Sensing menu item lets you disable or enable auto size sensing on trays. Size Sensing also
lets the printer detect the difference between similar paper sizes that it otherwise cannot.
Note: If you load both Executive and JIS B5 size paper, or Legal and JIS B4 size paper,
load one size in the multipurpose feeder. Do not use two trays when you load these
similar sizes of paper.

Size sensing and tray linking
If you want to link printer trays and have selected to load Executive or JIS B5 size paper, complete the
steps beginning on
page 48
of this topic to specify the size you want the printer to sense. Then, if you
load JIS B5 in trays 1 through 3, for example, those trays are linked. If one tray runs out of JIS B5, the
printer automatically selects JIS B5 from another one of these trays. See
Linking trays
for more
information.
