Configuring Media Type and Size Configure the media type (such as plain paper, letterhead, or transparencies) for each of the input trays. If the media type and size have been correctly configured for the input trays, the printer will print based on the type and size of media and will automatically use the correct input tray. Configuring the media type is beneficial for several reasons: • Setting the media type prevents printing on the wrong, possibly expensive, media. • The printer will automatically adjust its print speed to accommodate special media (such as card stock, labels, and transparencies). These adjustments will give the best quality output, saving time and resources. Note If the media type is not set properly, the printer might not print on the correct media or at the correct speed for the media type, which can result in poor print quality. EN Loading Media 32

Configuring Media Type and Size
Configure the media type (such as plain paper,
letterhead, or transparencies) for each of the input
trays. If the media type and size have been correctly
configured for the input trays, the printer will print based
on the type and size of media and will automatically use
the correct input tray. Configuring the media type is
beneficial for several reasons:
•
Setting the media type prevents printing on the
wrong, possibly expensive, media.
•
The printer will automatically adjust its print speed to
accommodate special media (such as card stock,
labels, and transparencies). These adjustments will
give the best quality output, saving time and
resources.
Note
If the media type is not set properly, the printer
might not print on the correct media or at the
correct speed for the media type, which can result
in poor print quality.
