Specifying the Size of the Paper in the Multi-purpose Tray
When you loaded paper in the multi-purpose tray, specify the paper size for the 
multi-purpose tray using the control panel. When using paper or envelopes of 
standard size, specify its size. When loading custom size paper, specify CUSTOM 
SIZE or CUSTOM SIZER. The paper size setting for the multi-purpose tray is set to 
A4 by default.
Specify the paper size setting for the multi-purpose tray using the following 
procedure.
IMPORTANT
•Match the paper size specified in the SETUP menu of the printer and that specified in the 
printer driver. If they do not match, the message  appears. In this 
case, the setting for TRAY PAPER SIZE is changed to that in the printer driver by 
pressing [Online], allowing you to continue printing.
•When custom size paper is loaded, specify the setting for TRAY PAPER SIZE as follows.
-W hen the paper is loaded in landscape orientation: CUSTOM SIZE
-W hen the paper is loaded in portrait orientation: CUSTOM SIZER

•When you change the paper loaded in the multi-purpose tray frequently, it is convenient if 
TRAY PAPER SIZE is set to MIXED SIZES. If TRAY PAPER SIZE is set to MIXED SIZES, 
you do not need to specify the setting for TRAY PAPER SIZE each time you load the 
different size paper. However, observe the following when specifying MIXED SIZES.
- Make sure that the size of the paper loaded in the multi-purpose tray matches the paper 
size specified in the printer driver before printing. If they do not match, the printer may 
stop printing, displaying the message , or a paper jam may 
occur. Be sure to check if the paper size specified in the printer driver matches the size 
of the paper loaded in the multi-purpose tray before using the printer. However, if 
SPECIAL MODE J is set to ON, the printer prints without checking the paper size even 
when the paper size specified in the printer driver and the size of the paper loaded in 
the multi-purpose tray do not match. For more details, see SPECIAL MODE J, on p. 
5-36.
-W hen printing from UFR II Printer Driver, you can load paper either in portrait or 
landscape orientation. However, when printing custom size paper of its long edges 
215.9 mm or less, load the paper in landscape orientation. When you are not using 
UFR II Printer Driver, load the paper in portrait orientation.
