Printing on Custom Sized Media

Always use the appropriate feed source for the size and type media
you are using, following the procedure in chapter 2 or in "Media
Sources" later in this chapter.
Set the custom page size through your application. Make sure that paper
size selections in the page or document setup agree with those in the
Print dialog box to ensure that the page prints correctly.
Additional RAM is required to print oversized media, particularly at
high resolutions. See "Printer Memory Requirements" in chapter 9.
If a virtual memory error occurs, there is not enough printer memory
to process the job. In this case, try adding memory to your printer,
printing at a lower resolution, or using only printer resident fonts.

Media Types

Your printer supports paper, envelope, label, transparency, and film
media with weights from 16 - 36 lb bond (60 - 135 g/m
"Media Sources" later in this chapter about which media source to
use with specific media types and weights. Chapter 8, "Printing with
Various Media Types," covers specifics for printing on film,
envelopes, transparencies, and labels.
Media used in your printer should meet the guidelines for selecting and
storing media earlier in this chapter. To save on media costs, test a
sample of new media before buying in quantity. Run a test print on
plain paper to check layout and alignment before using the more
expensive stock.
