Introduction to the media handling

Introduction
The machine supports a wide range of media, including tabs and inserts. The supported
media sizes range from 8 x 8 inch (minimum) to 12.5 x 19.2 inch (maximum). The
supported media weights range from 33 - 202 lb bond for media that are recommended
by the manufacturer, and 40 - 135 lb bond for other media.
This section describes the following:
• Media handling in general
• The 'Media catalog'
• Temporary media.
Note:
You can place all the supported media in any paper tray.
General introduction to the media handling
All the print jobs require media that you can assign to the paper trays via the operator
panel. The print jobs can require media that are included in the 'Media catalog'. However,
the print jobs can also require media that are not included in the 'Media catalog'. These
media become temporary media on the system.
What is the 'Media catalog'
The 'Media catalog' is a list of predefined media and media attributes which you can define
in the Settings Editor application on the controller. The use of the 'Media catalog' is
only recommended, not compulsory.
When you use the 'Media catalog', the operator panel, the printer drivers and other ap-
plications all display the same list of predefined media. The operator panel and the
printer driver automatically retrieve and show the latest version of the 'Media catalog'.
Note:
Refer to the Online Help of the Settings Editor for information about the media attributes
that you can define. The Online Help also describes how to adapt the 'Media catalog'
(add, edit or delete media).
