Using New Paper
Step 3
Measure the paper and set an appropriate paper profile
Measure new paper using Media Sensor, and search the already registered paper profiles to see if there is a suitable one available.
Step 4
Perform a test print
Print a few test copies to see if the set paper profile is appropriate or not.
It is recommended to make both a simple and duplex test print.

Step 5
Change the settings as necessary
Advanced settings can be made to suit the loaded paper. For example, if a test 2-sided print produces images on the front and back sides of the paper that are not aligned, adjust the image positions using [Both Sides Adj.].
