Feed settings
By registering the paper size and the media type loaded on the rear tray or in the cassette, you can prevent the printer from misprinting by displaying the message before printing starts when the paper size or the media type of the loaded paper differs from the print settings.
Learn about the proper combination of paper settings you can specify in the Windows printer driver (media type / paper size) or on the touch screen:
To access Feed settings on the printer:
-
With the printer powered on and displaying the HOME screen, tap the Setup icon.
-
Tap Feed settings.
The following settings can be adjusted:
-
Rear tray paper settings
Registers the paper size and the media type you load on the rear tray.
-
Cassette paper settings
Registers the paper size you load in the cassette.
Plain paper can only be loaded in the cassette.
-
Detect paper setting mismatch
If you select Enable, the printer detects whether the paper size and the media type are identical with those registered in Feed settings. If printing starts with the settings that do not match, an error message is displayed on the touch screen.
When Disable is selected, the settings in Feed settings are disabled.
-
Check paper replacement
If you select ON, the printer detects the paper replacement (the feed slot cover is opened or closed, the cassette is reinserted). When the paper registration screen is displayed after replacing paper, register the paper size and the media type.
