Changing the Type of Paper

Important

• For best printing results, the printer fine-tunes the print head height and the feed amount for each type of paper. Be sure to select the type of paper to use correctly before printing.

• The standard output direction differs depending on the media type. Depending on the media type, it may only be possible to eject from the front so that it will not be scratched. When printing, select the correct media type to feed.

  • Paper Information List

Note

• This printer has the ability to estimate the media type by the data read by the sensor when the paper is set. If you continue to use this feature, you will learn the data that you read and the accuracy of the media type estimation. If you continue to use multiple media types, this feature will reduce the need to select the media type each time you set the paper.
