The PAPER TYPE setting lets you specify the type of print material
installed in each source. The PAPER TYPE setting is used by the printer in
the following ways:
• Enables the printer to optimize print quality for the specified print
material.
• Enables you to select paper sources through your software application
by selecting only a type and size. A source selection is unnecessary.
• Enables the printer to automatically link paper sources. Any sources that
contain the same type and size of print material are automatically linked
by the printer.
If your printer model is configured with a multipurpose feeder, the
Manual
Paper Type
and
Manual Env Type
are available for selection. These types
are used when manually feeding envelopes or other print material.
MP Feeder Type
is also available and displayed on the operator panel
when the multipurpose feeder is present on the printer model and
Configure MP
is set to
Cassette
. To configure the multipurpose feeder as a
Cassette
, set the
Configure MP
menu item to
Cassette
. See Configure MP
on page 68 for more information.
Custom Type 1 through 6 refers to names you defined for special types of
print materials you use. You set the names through a utility, such as
MarkVision. For example, if you are using three different letterheads for
different professionals in your business, you could define a custom type
name based on the name on their letterhead paper. For more information
on setting the Custom Type names, see CUSTOM TYPES on page 66.
Note: If you are using different print material in the paper sources (trays),
each source with a different print material must have the
PAPER TYPE
set
to a unique value to disable the automatic linking feature.
