IMPORTANT
- When adding custom paper, designate a computer for managing paper in advance and always add custom paper from that computer. To use that custom paper on other computers, first export the Custom Media Information File (.am1 file) for that custom paper from the computer for managing paper, and then import it into another computer for use.
- To use a Custom Media Information File (.am1 file) created outside of the network where the target printer is being used, first import it into the computer for managing paper. If you also want to use it on other computers, import and use a Custom Media Information File (.am1 file) newly exported from the computer for managing paper.
- When importing a Custom Media Information File (.am1 file) that was created on the computer for managing paper, first delete custom paper that does not exist on the computer for managing paper.
- When deleting custom paper, make the same changes on all of the other PCs that use the target printer.
- When using custom paper in another printer, always add the custom paper to that printer before use.
