Paper Settings

By registering the paper size, you can prevent the printer from misprinting by flashing the Alarm lamp before printing starts when the paper size of the loaded paper differs from the print settings.

After loading paper:

The Paper lamp flashes.

Register the paper size according to the loaded paper.

Media type is set depending on the paper size.

 The setting is registered so that it can be used for all paper sizes and types by default.
 

When the paper size setting for printing is different from the paper size setting set to the printer:

Ex:

• Paper size setting for printing: A5

• Paper size setting set to the printer: A4

When you start printing, the Alarm lamp and the Paper lamp for the paper size set when printing will flash.

Select one of the operations below.

Print on set paper

You print on the paper loaded without changing the paper size setting. Press the OK button.

For example, when the paper size setting for printing is A5 and the paper size setting set to A4 on the printer, the printer starts printing with A5 on the paper loaded.

Printing after replacing paper

You print after replacing paper loaded in the rear tray.

For example, when the paper size setting for printing is A4 and the paper size setting set to Letter on the printer, you load A4 sized paper before you start printing.

Cancel printing

Press the Stop button to cancel printing and change the paper size setting specified for printing. Try printing again.
