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 [Plain Paper Setting]. Select the paper tray, and then select [Plain Paper 1] or [Plain Paper 2].
