3.4 Printing on Non-standard Size Paper
This section describes how to load non-standard size paper in the paper trays.
The paper trays can accommodate paper of the following sizes:
Loading Non-standard Size Paper
The procedure for loading non-standard size paper is the same as for standard-size paper.
Refer to "4.2 Loading Paper" (P. 81).
Registering Non-standard Size Paper
Before using non-standard size paper, set its paper size on your print driver.
The following procedure uses Windows XP as an example.
When loading non-standard-size paper in the tray 1, 2, 3, or 4, set its paper size also on the
control panel. For information on how to set a paper size on the control panel, refer to "
Setting the Paper Sizes of the Trays 1 - 4" (P. 87).
Important
• Make sure to set the paper size correctly on the print driver or on the control panel. Setting the wrong
paper size can cause printer failure.
Note
• On Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003, only users with administrator level access
can change the settings. Users without administrator level access can only view the settings.
• Changing the settings in the [Custom Paper Size] dialog box on Windows 2000, Windows XP, or
Windows Server 2003 when the printer is a local printer can affect the settings for other printers on your
computer. Whereas, changing those settings when the printer is a network printer can affect other
network-shared printers on other computers over the network. This is because the printer uses its own
form database when it is local, and uses the form database of a server that has a print queue when it is
networked.
1. On the Windows [Start] menu, click [Printers and Faxes].
Select to highlight the printer, and select [Properties] from the [File] menu.
