'Auto Sheet Feeder'

Paper is fed from the auto sheet feeder. 

'Cassette'

Paper is fed from the cassette of the printer.

'Paper Allocation' 

When the print data's paper size matches that of the paper registered for the cassette, paper will be fed from the cassette. When a paper size other than that in the cassette is specified, paper will be fed from the auto sheet feeder. 

When 'Paper Allocation' is selected, the paper type allocation settings can be selected.
