Specifying a paper type for the bypass tray

By selecting the paper type you want to load, the printer performs better. You can select from the following paper types:

Important

  • When you specify the bypass tray as the input tray on the printer driver, and perform printing, if you set [Bypass Priority] to [Any Size/Type] under [Paper Input] on the control panel, the printer ignores the paper type and size settings made on the control panel. Printing is performed with the settings made on the printer driver.

  • When you specify a custom size paper and specify the bypass tray as the input tray on the printer driver, and perform printing with [Bypass Priority] set to [Any Custom S/T] under [Paper Input] on the control panel, the printer ignores the paper type and size settings made on the control panel. Printing is performed with the settings made on the printer driver.

  • If you set [Bypass Priority] to [Machine Setting] under [Paper Input], paper type settings made on the printer driver must match those made on the control panel. If they do not match, an error message appears and printing stops if [Auto Continue] is not set to [On] under [System].
