Machine Setting(s)
The machine prints all print jobs according to the machine’s settings.

Any Size/Type
The machine prints all print jobs according to the printer driver’s settings.
Printing proceeds even if the paper size/type settings of the machine and printer driver do not match. However, if the paper is too small for the print job, the printed image will be cropped.

If tray 2 is not installed, only [Tray 1] appears.
Default for all functions: [Tray 1]
Printer
If automatic tray selection is specified for the print job and both tray 1 and tray 2 contain paper that matches the print job, the machine starts to print from the specified tray.

If printing is frequently interrupted by data from other ports, increase the timeout period.
Default: 60 seconds
15 sec.
60 sec.
300 sec.
Network
Specifies how many seconds the machine waits for print data, if the data is interrupted while it is being sent from the computer via network. If the machine does not receive any more data within the time specified here, the machine only prints the data it has received. If printing is frequently interrupted by data from other ports, increase the timeout period.
Default: 60 seconds

Locked Print
Specifies how many seconds the machine holds a new Locked Print file, when the machine cannot store any more Locked Print files. Within this time, you can print or delete the new Locked Print file.
