Setting The Paper Tray's Paper Size - Epson ActionLaser 1600 Reference Manual

For information about loading heavy paper, envelopes, labels,
or transparencies, see 'Printing on Special Paper" later in this
chapter. For information about loading paper in the optional
lower cassette, see Appendix C.

Setting the paper tray's paper size

By default, the printer is set up to expect letter-size paper to be
loaded in both the standard tray and optional lower paper
cassette. If you load paper of a different sire, you need to use
the control panel to update the printer for the paper size loaded
in the tray. This cannot be done from your software.
1. Hold down the Alt button while you press the Paper See
button. This displays the standard tray's current setting.
STD SIZE = LTR
To display the lower paper cassette's paper size, press the
Item button.
2. Press the arrow button to change the paper size. Keep
pressing until the correct paper size is displayed.
STD SIZE = LGL
3. Press the Enter button. This saves the displayed value as the
new paper size. An asterisk (*) at the right of the display
that indicates the setting shown is selected.
4. Press the On Line button to put the printer back on line.
If you see the message RESET TO SAVE, the new setting
cannot take place immediately. Press the Reset button
while you hold down the Alt button. This updates the
printer with the new setting.
