You can specify size for all of the settings in the Paper Options group box. When the media size is set in the driver, the entire print-job output uses that media size. That is, if the print job uses Letter-size media, any option that you select from the available Use Different Paper/Covers options must also use Letter-size media. Because print-driver settings are overridden by media-size settings in most software programs, it is generally best to use the print driver to set media size only when printing from software programs that lack a media-size setting, such as NotePad, or when producing a book or a booklet that does not require different media sizes. NOTE Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different media sizes within a single document. When you change the print-driver setting to a media size that is not currently loaded in the device, a control-panel message appears that prompts you to load the media size or select another tray. For information about media sizes, see Media attributes on page 344. When the Use Different Paper/Covers check box is selected and different options are configured, the Size is:, Source is:, and Type is: menus change, offering a variety of options.
