Paper Menu (continued) Menu item PAPER TYPE (continued) *Factory default Values The PAPER TYPE setting lets you specify the type of print material installed in each paper source. This setting is used by the printer in the following ways: • Enables the printer to optimize print quality for the specified print material. • Enables you to select paper sources through your software application by selecting only a type and size. A source selection is unnecessary. • Enables the printer to automatically link paper sources. Any sources that contain the same type and size of print material are automatically linked by the printer if you have set the PAPER SIZE and the PAPER TYPE to the correct settings for the paper sources. Select Manual Pap Type when manually feeding a single sheet of print material through the multipurpose feeder. Select Manual Env Type when manually feeding an envelope through the multipurpose feeder. Note: Before loading print material in any paper source, make sure you set the PAPER SIZE and the PAPER TYPE for the paper source. Also, select the paper size and the type from your software application for the print material you are loading. Custom Type 1 through 6 refers to special types of print materials. If a user-defined name is available, it displays instead of Custom Type x. Use MarkVision to create custom type names. The name is truncated to 14 characters. See "CUSTOM TYPES" on page 19. If you are using different print material in the paper sources, each source with a different print material must have the PAPER SIZE and PAPER TYPE set to a unique value to disable the automatic tray linking feature. Otherwise, if a paper source becomes empty, the printer selects print material from another source since the printer sees the trays as linked. This might cause a one-page letter to print on a sheet of labels or on a transparency. Using the Operator Panel and Menus 18

PAPER TYPE
(continued)
The
PAPER TYPE
setting lets you specify the type of print material installed in each paper source. This setting is used by
the printer in the following ways:
Enables the printer to optimize print quality for the specified print material.
Enables you to select paper sources through your software application by selecting only a type and size. A source
selection is unnecessary.
Enables the printer to automatically link paper sources. Any sources that contain the same type and size of print
material are automatically linked by the printer if you have set the
PAPER SIZE
and the
PAPER TYPE
to the correct
settings for the paper sources.
Select
Manual Pap Type
when manually feeding a single sheet of print material through the multipurpose feeder.
Select
Manual Env Type
when manually feeding an envelope through the multipurpose feeder.
Note:
Before loading print material in any paper source, make sure you set the
PAPER SIZE
and the
PAPER TYPE
for
the paper source. Also, select the paper size and the type from your software application for the print material you are
loading.
Custom Type 1 through 6 refers to special types of print materials. If a user-defined name is available, it displays instead
of Custom Type x. Use MarkVision to create custom type names. The name is truncated to 14 characters. See
CUSTOM
TYPES
on page 19
.
If you are using different print material in the paper sources, each source with a different print material must have the
PAPER SIZE
and
PAPER TYPE
set to a unique value to disable the automatic tray linking feature. Otherwise, if a paper
source becomes empty, the printer selects print material from another source since the printer sees the trays as linked.
This might cause a one-page letter to print on a sheet of labels or on a transparency.
