Size is: drop-down menu The Size is: drop-down menu lists all of the supported media sizes. You can specify size for all the settings in the Paper Options group box. You must use the same size of media for the entire print job. That is, if the print job uses Letter-size media, any option that you select from the available Use Different Paper options must also use Letter-size media. NOTE Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different media sizes within a single document. For the Other Pages and Back Cover settings, you can select a source (tray) and media type that differ from the settings selected for First Page. If a conflict exists among media source, media size, and/or media type, and you choose to keep the conflicting settings, the settings are processed in the following order: media size, media type, and then media source. Because driver settings are overridden by media-size settings in most software programs, it is generally best to use the driver to set media size only for software programs that lack a media-size setting, such as NotePad, or when you are producing a book or a booklet that does not require different media sizes. NOTE When you use a software program with a media-size setting, you can specify different media sizes within a single document by using the Use Different Paper/Covers options.
