Changing the Type of Paper

Follow these steps to change the type of paper specified on the printer after you have loaded paper.
If you will continue using this type of paper later, selecting Keep Paper Type > On will save the time and effort of configuring the media type setting when you load the paper again. The current media type settings before you select On will be automatically selected at that time.
