What to Do

Select the appropriate action.

Note

• Depending on settings, some of the options below may not appear.

Print on set paper

Select this option to print onto the paper in the rear tray and the cassette without changing the paper settings.

For example, if the print paper setting is A5, and cassette paper information is set to A4, the A5 size setting is used to print onto the paper in the cassette.

Replace the paper

Select this option to print after changing the paper in the cassette.

For example, if the print paper setting is A5, and rear tray paper information is set to A4, change the paper in the rear tray to A5 paper and proceed with printing.

Once you have changed the paper, the screen for setting rear tray paper information appears. Set paper information for the paper in the rear tray.
