Note

  • Duplex printing is not possible for [Thick Paper 2], [Bond Paper], [Cardstock], and [Label Paper].

  • If the [Auto Continue] setting under [System] is enabled, the printer ignores the paper type and size settings and prints on whatever paper is loaded. Printing stops temporarily when the error is detected, and restarts automatically after about ten seconds using the settings made on the control panel.
