Specifying custom size paper for the Bypass Tray

Important

  • When loading custom size or special paper, specify the paper size using the control panel or printer driver.

  • The custom size paper selected using the printer driver overrides that selected using the control panel. Do not make settings using the control panel if you have already made settings using the printer driver.

  • Paper sizes between 139.7 - 432 mm (5.50 - 17.00 in.) in length and 64 - 216 mm (2.52 - 8.50 in.) in width can be loaded in the Bypass Tray. However, the size range varies depending on a type of printer drivers. For details, see the printer driver Help.

  • Be sure to set a same size using both the control panel and the printer driver. If you set different size, printer error will occur.

  • You cannot print on custom size paper with an application that does not support the custom size setting.
