Paper Selection

Remark
  • For information on the modes which cannot be set in combination with this mode, see "Combination of Functions Chart."
  • When printing on special types of paper, such as heavy paper or transparencies, be sure to correctly set the paper type, especially if you are using heavy paper. If the type of paper is not set correctly, it could adversely affect the quality of the image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become dirty, or the paper could jam, and a service repair may be needed.
  • If you are copying an original with an image that extends all the way to the edges onto the same size paper at a copy ratio of 100%, the periphery of the original image may be cut off slightly on the copy. For more information on how much may be cut off, see Chapter 4, "Appendix," in Troubleshooting.
  • If you select the Entire Image mode, the copied image is automatically reduced slightly based on the copy paper size and the image size. As a result, the entire original image is reproduced on the copy without being cut off. (See "Entire Image.")
  • If you select [Free Size], [Envelope], [Tracing Paper], [Transparency], or [Labels], you cannot specify any Finishing modes (Collate, Group, or Staple).
  • If Stack Bypass Standard Settings in Common Settings (from the Additional Functions screen) is set to 'On', and the paper size/type have been stored, the selected paper size/type are displayed on the screen. (See "Additional Functions.")
  • For instructions on loading paper into the stack bypass, see "Basic Operations."
  • For more information on paper types, see "Basic Operations."
  • For instructions on entering values in inches, see "Basic Operations."
