Using Custom Paper Types

Use this feature to create your own custom paper type with specific settings that you can reuse for
routine print jobs, for example, monthly reports. Custom paper types are created in CentreWare IS and
appear in the printer driver, control panel, and CentreWare IS. You can define up to 5 custom names
and assign base paper types to them. The control panel always lists all five types, but the driver only
lists the ones that are not hidden.
Note: Only Windows or Macintosh drivers connected over a network can show the redefined names
and hide the types. Other drivers show all five default names.
To modify custom paper types:
1. Launch your Web browser.
2. Enter the printer's IP address in the browser's Address field.
3. Click Properties.
4. Select the General folder on the left navigation panel.
5. Select Custom Paper Types.
