The types of paper loaded in the paper trays are indicated on the printer's display. This allows you to see which tray the selected paper type is loaded in. However, the paper type setting available in the [Printing Preferences] dialog box might be different from the type indicated on the printer's display.
If the paper tray loaded with the specified paper size and type is not available, a warning message appears on the control panel. If this happens, follow the instructions in the message to specify a paper tray and make the machine continue printing manually. Alternatively, press the job reset button to cancel printing. For details, see "If Error Occurs with the Specified Paper Size and Type".

To use this function, click the [Detailed Settings] tab. Click the [Print Quality] menu in the [Menu:] box, and then select [Barrier-free Color Management:]. This function is available with the PCL 6 and PostScript 3 printer drivers only.
