43 PRINT 1 Select [Print] from the [File] menu of TextEdit. 2 Make sure that the correct printer is selected. The machine name that appears in the Printer menu is normally [SCxxxxxx].

Click next to [Copies & Pages] ([General] in Mac OS 9.0 to 9.2.2) and select the settings that you wish to configure from the pull-down menu. The setting screen of each selected setting will appear.

44 4 Click the [Print] button. Printing begins. The print job is delivered to the output tray, with the position of the paper offset slightly from the previous job (other than the right tray).
45 SELECTING THE PAPER This section explains the [Paper Feed] settings ([Paper Source] setting in General in Mac OS 9.0 to 9.2.2) in the print settings window. • When [Auto Select] is selected A tray with plain paper or recycled paper (the factory default setting is plain paper only) of the size specified in Paper Size in the page settings window is automatically selected. When a paper tray is selected The specified tray is used for printing regardless of the Paper Size setting in the page settings window. A paper type can also be specified for the bypass tray. Check the bypass tray and make sure that the desired type of paper is loaded, and then select the appropriate paper type setting for the bypass tray. When a paper type is selected A tray with the specified type of paper and the size specifi ed in Paper Size in the page settings window is used for printing. Special media such as envelopes can also be placed in the bypass tray. For the procedure for loading paper and other media in the bypass tray, see LOADING PAPER IN THE BYPASS TRAY in the Users Guide. When Enable Detected Paper Size in Bypass Tray (disable d by factory default) or Enable Selected Paper Type in Bypass Tray (enabled by factory default) is enabled in the system settings (administr ator), printing will not take place if the paper size or paper type specified in the pr inter driver is different from the paper size or paper type specified in the settings of the bypass tray. System Settings (Adm inistrator): Exclude Bypass-T ray from Auto Paper Select When [Auto Select] is selected, specify wh ether or not the paper in the bypass tray will be excluded from the paper that can be automatically selected. This setting is disabled by factory default, and thus paper in the bypass tray is included in the paper that can be automatically select ed. If special types of paper are frequently loaded in the bypass tray, it is recommended that this setting be enabled.
