Changing the
Paper Type setting
It is important to verify that the Paper Type settings are accurate for all 
the installed paper sources. Refer to the menu settings page you 
printed. The Paper Type is listed for each of the installed paper 
sources. 
Paper Type refers to the type of media loaded in the sources: plain 
paper, letterhead, transparencies, card stock, a custom media you 
define, and so on. Since different sources can hold different media, 
you can customize the Paper Type setting for each source. 
The printer uses the Paper Type setting to optimize print quality for 
the media you specified. The Paper Type setting also affects the 
printer’s automatic source selection capability, as well as the tray link-
ing function. (See “Linking trays” on page 149 for more information.) 
For these reasons, it’s important to change the setting each time you 
change the media in the tray or feeder. 
Refer to the 
Complete Printer Reference for detailed information 
about the paper types supported by each paper source, as well as 
ways to use the Paper Type setting to make printing more efficient in 
your work environment.
