Understanding the paper type sensor

Your All-In-One has a paper type sensor that detects these paper types:

Plain paper

Coated paper

Glossy/photo paper

Transparencies

If you load one of these paper types, the All-In-One detects the paper type 
and automatically adjusts the paper type settings and print resolution. 

Note: Your All-In-One cannot detect the paper size. For help, 

see page 13.

To choose the paper size:

1

With your document open, click File   Print.

2

In the Print dialog box, click PropertiesPreferencesOptions, or 
Setup (depending on your program or operating system).

The Print Properties screen appears.

3

From the Paper Setup tab, select the paper size you are using.

4

Click OK
