Paper Settings

By registering the size of the paper loaded on the rear tray, you can prevent the printer from misprinting by flashing Alarm lamp and Paper lamp before printing starts when the paper size of the loaded paper differs from the print settings.

Media type is set depending on the paper size registered in the printer.
