Explanation

When you specify "paper type 1", "paper type 2", or "paper type n", paper is fed from a paper input location that is loaded with the paper of the matching size, orientation, and type. If no paper type is specified, paper is fed from a paper input loaded with either "Plain Paper" or "Recycled Paper".
If no paper input location that is loaded with the paper of the size, orientation, and type specified in this printing option is available, paper is fed from the paper input location indicated on the control panel of the machine.
Some paper input locations may not be selected.
When you specify this printing option, the "tray" printing option and the settings for "1. Paper Input Location", "2. Paper Size", "U. Auto Paper Select", and "V. Auto Paper Select: Margin Tolerance" in the RTIFF Menu that have been specified on the control panel of the machine are ignored.
When you specify the "autopaper" and "paper" printing options at the same time, the "paper" printing option is ignored.

When Auto Paper Input Switching is enabled, paper may be fed from a paper input location different from the specified paper input location. In order to specify a paper input location, select either "Auto" or "Off" in "4. Auto Paper Input Switching" on the RTIFF Menu, or specify the "noautotray" printing option.
