What Is [Paper Setting]?
In [Paper Setting], set paper conditions for a paper tray.
NOTICE
- Special paper such as label paper or paper with an adhesive surface may cause a failure because the adhesive surface may adhere to various parts inside the machine during paper feeding. When using this function, be sure to contact your service representative in advance.
Tips
- Even while a job is running, the paper setting can be changed for a paper tray that is not used for the job. However, an item of an inactive key cannot be changed.
- Series B paper is set to JIS or ISO standard size by default. This setting differs depending on the shipping region. For JIS/ISO switching, contact your service representative.
- A paper profile that does not match the specifications of the paper tray cannot be set.
- The selectable paper types and sizes vary depending on the optional devices mounted on this system. For details, refer to Optional Part Names and Specifications for Paper Feed.
Reference
- For details about how to use the K size, refer to [K Size].
