X can be from 3.67 to 11.7 in. (from 93 to 297 mm) for Tray 1. Set the Y dimension (the side edge of the paper) as shown in the illustration above. Y can be from 7.5 to 17.7 in (from 191 to 450 mm) for Tray 1. 4.

The X and Y dimensions must be set in the Configure Custom Paper Setting of the Printing Menu if the PCL 5e driver is used, or custom paper is loaded longedge first (X is longer than Y).
