*1
XML Paper Specification (XPS) driver does not support custom size paper.
*2
Paper type that does not support printing on the back side of printed paper.
NOTE:
For Plain and Label paper, you can preset the paper density by selecting the Paper Density (Light or
Normal) under Maintenance from the operator panel, Tool Box, or Dell Printer Configuration Web

Chemically treated paper used to make copies without carbon paper, also known as
carbonless paper, carbonless copy paper (CCP), or no carbon required (NCR) paper
Pre-printed paper with chemicals that may contaminate the printer
Pre-printed paper that can be affected by the temperature in the fusing unit
Pre-printed paper that requires a registration (the precise print location on the page)
greater than ±0.09 inch, such as Optical Character Recognition (OCR) forms. In
some cases, you can adjust registration with your software program to successfully
