							101 – Printing: Custom Size Paper
MC361/MC561/CX2731 MFP Advanced User’s Guide
Note
• Custom sizes may not be available in some applications.
• Media narrower than 3.9 inches (100 mm) can cause paper 
jams.
• For banner media over 14 inches (356mm) long, use the rear 
exit tray.
• If banner media runs over the supports on the MP Tray, hold the 
excess by hand.
• When using tray 1 or optional tray 2, you can use the custom 
setting only when [Paper Size] is set to [Custom] (press the 
 key, then use the arrow keys > [Paper Setup] > 
[Tray 1] or [Tray 2] > [Paper Size] > [Custom]).
• The Auto Tray Change check box in the Paper Feed Options 
window is selected by default. When the tray runs out of paper 
during printing, the MFP automatically locates another tray and 
begins feeding paper from that tray. If you want to feed custom 
paper only from a particular tray, clear the Auto Tray Change 
check box.
Important!
These instructions assume that you have already enabled 
custom paper size in the MFP.

							110 – Printing: Setting the Page Order
MC361/MC561/CX2731 MFP Advanced User’s Guide
If you want pages to be stacked in numeric order, forward order is 
usually appropriate with the face down stacker, and reverse order 
with the face up stacker.
If you are using the rear exit tray, set the print job to print in the 
reverse order to stack the paper in the order of the pages.
Notes
• Reverse order is not available with the Windows PCL/PCL XPS 
printer driver.
• If the rear exit tray (face up stacker) is not open, pages are 
output on the top exit tray (face down stacker).
The procedures below use the MC561 as an example.
