5 Verify that the options you installed are listed on the menu settings page under "Installed Features." If an option you installed does not appear on the page, turn the printer off, unplug the power cord, and reinstall the option. 6 If you attached a serial cable, verify that the printer serial settings listed on the menu settings page are appropriate for your system. Refer to the User's Guide for more information about the Serial Menu and changing these settings. Changing the Paper Type setting It is important to verify that the Paper Type settings are accurate for all the installed paper sources. Refer to the menu settings page you printed. The Paper Type is listed for each of the installed paper sources. Paper Type refers to the type of media loaded in the sources: plain paper, letterhead, envelopes, transparencies, card stock, a custom media you define, and so on. Since different sources can hold different media, you can customize the Paper Type setting for each source. The printer uses the Paper Type setting to optimize print quality for the media you specified. For example, selecting the Transparency paper type causes the printer to heat the fuser to a higher temperature and slows printing to produce the best transparency possible. The Paper Type setting also affects the printer's automatic source selection capability, as well as the tray linking function. For these reasons, it's important to change the setting each time you change the media in the tray or feeder. Refer to the User's Guide for more detailed information about the paper types supported by each paper source, as well as ways to use the Paper Type setting to make printing more efficient in your work environment.
