Prioritizing the Paper Settings

PreviousNext

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.

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

If [Machine Setting(s)] is selected, the paper settings configured on the machine's control panel are applied to all print jobs. An error occurs if the paper settings specified by the printer driver commands do not match the ones that are configured in the machine.
