Applying the Settings Specified in the Printer Driver or Commands When Printing

You can specify whether to give priority to the settings configured in the printer driver or commands, or to the ones configured on the control panel for each tray when the machine receives print data.

By default, priority is given to the settings specified on the control panel over those specified for each source tray. An error occurs when the paper settings specified in the printer driver or command do not match the settings specified on the machine.

When [Driver / Command] is selected in [Tray Setting Priority], the paper size, type, and orientation settings specified in the printer driver or command are applied, regardless of the settings of [Tray Paper Settings] specified on the machine.
