After loading paper:

Media type is set depending on the paper size.

 The Asterisk is set to the same as the paper size and type set in paper information of the Remote UI.

By default, the legal-sized plain paper is set as the paper size and type in this printer.
 

When the paper size setting for printing is different from the paper size setting set to the printer:

Ex:

  • Paper size setting for printing: A5

  • Paper size setting set to the printer: A4

Figure: Mismatch between printer and computer

When you start printing, an error code appears on the LCD.

Select one of the operations below.

Print on set paper

You print on the paper loaded without changing the paper size setting. Press the Color button or the Black button.

For example, when the paper size setting for printing is A5 and the paper size setting set to A4 on the printer, the printer starts printing with A5 on the paper loaded.

Printing after replacing paper

You print after replacing paper loaded in the rear tray.

For example, when the paper size setting for printing is A5 and the paper size setting set to A4 on the LCD, you load A5 sized paper before you start printing.

Cancel printing

Press the Stop button to cancel printing and change the paper size setting specified for printing. Try printing again.
