Setting Thick Paper or OHP Transparencies Using the Control Panel

Follow the procedure below to set the machine using the control panel when loading thick paper or OHP transparencies onto the bypass tray.

The following procedures are not required if you select [Driver / Command] from [Bypass Tray Setting Priority] in [System] of [Printer Features] (see "System"). In that case, set the paper size using the printer driver.
If you select [Machine Settings] from [Bypass Tray Setting Priority] in [System] of [Printer Features] (see "System"), the settings made using the control panel have priority over the printer driver settings.
If the printer driver is not used, select [Machine Settings] from [Bypass Tray Setting Priority] in [System] of [Printer Features] (see "System"). Set the paper size using the control panel.

Press the [User Tools/Counter] key on the control panel.
Press [System Settings].
Press the [Tray Paper Settings] tab.
Press [Next] to scroll through the list.
Press [Paper Type: Bypass Tray].
Select the proper items, according to the paper type you want to set.
- Press [OHP (Transparency)] on the [Paper Type] area when loading OHP transparencies.
- Press [No Display] on the [Paper Type] area, and then press [Thick Paper 104 -216g/m2], [Middle Thick 81-103 g/m2] on the [Paper Thickness] area when loading thick paper.
Press [OK].
The paper type selected is displayed.
Press the [User Tools/Counter] key.
The initial screen appears.

Printing on special paper such as thick paper or OHP transparencies may be slower than printing on plain paper.
The settings made will remain valid until they are reset again. After printing on OHP transparencies or thick paper, make sure to clear settings for the next user.
