    Switching the Paper Source to Match the Purpose 
    Switching the Paper Source to Match the Purpose 
    In this machine, there are two paper sources, a rea r tray and a cassette.
    You can facilitate printing by selecting a paper so urce setting that matches your print conditions or
    purpose. 
    The procedure for setting paper source is as follows:  
    You can also set the paper source on the Quick Setu p tab. 
    1.Open the printer driver setup window
    2.
    Select the paper source  
    From the Paper Source list on the Main tab, select  the paper source that matches your purpose. 
    Automatically Select  
    Plain paper whose Page Size is Letter 8.5x11, A5,  A4, or B5 is fed from the cassette. Other sizes of
    plain paper and paper types other than plain paper  are fed from the rear tray. 
    Rear Tray 
    Paper is always fed from the rear tray.  
    Cassette  
    Paper is always fed from the cassette. 
    Important 
    Plain paper that is not Letter 8.5x11, A5, A4, or  B5 and paper types other than plain paper
    cannot be fed from the cassette. 
    Continuous Autofeed  
    W hen plain paper runs out in the specified paper so urce, the printer automatically switches the
    paper source.

    can therefore reduce the trouble of having to load  paper because the printer automatically switches Page 294 of 877 pages

    							the paper source when paper runs out in one paper source. 
    Important 
    Continuous Autofeed is unavailable when paper other than Plain Paper is selected for Media
    Type. 
    Since the printer feeds paper from the paper source tha t was being used the last time
    Continuous Autofeed was selected and printing ended, lo ad the same paper in both the rear
    tray and the cassette. 
    Paper Allocation  
    W hen the media type for the print data is plain pap er and the paper size matches the paper
    allocation setting, the printer automatically feeds  paper from the cassette. If not, the printer feeds
    paper from the rear tray.  
    To change the paper allocation settings, click Pape r Allocation..., specify the Paper Size to be loaded
    in the cassette, and then click OK.  
    W hen you load frequently used plain paper in the ca ssette, the printer feeds paper from the rear tray
    when the print data uses a different type of paper. You can therefore reduce the trouble of having to
    load different paper. 
    3.Complete the setup  
    Click OK. 
    W hen you execute print, the printer uses the specif ied paper source to print the data.
