Maintenance

Default: [Coated Paper (Glossy) 4]

If prints made using the paper tray show heavy smudging, use the following procedure to change the paper type setting from the control panel:

  • Press the [Menu] key, select [Maintenance], [General Settings], and then select [Coated Paper (Glossy) Stg.]. Select the paper tray, and then select one from [Coated Paper (Glossy) 1], [Coated Paper (Glossy) 2], [Coated Paper (Glossy) 3], [Coated Paper (Glossy) 4], or [Coated Paper (Glossy) 5].

When specifying paper thickness, remember that a higher number indicates greater thickness. Also, because the paper thickness will normally be detected automatically, change this setting only if a print problem occurs.
