Changing the Type of Paper
Follow these steps to change the type of paper specied on the printer after you have loaded paper.
If you will continue using this type of paper later, selecting Keep Paper Type > On will save the time and effort of
conguring the media type setting when you load the paper again. The current media type settings before you
select On will be automatically selected at that time. (→P.113)

For best printing results, the printer ne-tunes the feed amount for each type of paper. Be sure to select
the type of paper to use correctly before printing.
•
Because the printer ne-tunes the feed amount for each type of paper, the margins and the size of
printed images may vary depending on the type of paper used. If margins and the size of images are not
as you expected, adjust the paper feed amount.
