Notes: • The smallest supported Universal size is 70 x 127 mm (2.76 x 5 inches) for one‑sided printing and 105 x 148 mm (4.13 x 5.83 inches) for two‑sided (duplex) printing. • The largest supported Universal size is 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches) for one‑sided and two‑sided printing. • When printing on paper less than 210 mm (8.3 inches) wide, the printer may print at a reduced speed after a period of time to ensure the best print performance. • If you regularly print large jobs on narrow paper, then you may use the MS710 Series printer models, which print batches of 10 or more pages of narrow paper at a faster speed. For more information on the MS710 Series printer models, contact your Lexmark sales representative. 1 From the home screen, navigate to: > Paper Menu > Universal Setup > Units of Measure > select a unit of measure 2 Touch Portrait Width or Portrait Height. 3 Select the width or height, and then touch Submit.
