ISO-C5, ENV. COM10, ENV. MONARCH, ENV. DL, ENV. ISO-B5, A5, B5
Specifies the size of the paper loaded in the multi-purpose tray.
IMPORTANT
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 (See p. 5-36) 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.
- When 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.

paper using application and print it. If a message that prompts you to change the 
size of the paper appears during printing, press [Online] to clear the error before

have selected the [Print with Upper Left of Sheet as Starting Point] check box in 
[Finishing Details] in the printer driver, you can extend the printable area to near 
the edges of the paper. For more details, see Help of the printer driver.)
•Y ou can obtain the same result by specifying the setting for TRAY PAPER SIZE in 
the SELECT FEEDER menu.
