Configuring the trays for custom-size media
Custom media sizes are sizes that do not conform to those marked in the input trays and that are not listed in the control
panel menus or in the printer driver.
Note
For tray 1. When using custom-size media, select
CUSTOM
from the Tray 1 Size menu.
For tray 2, tray 3, and tray 4. When using custom-size media in these trays, make sure that the custom/
standard switch in the tray is set to Custom.
Note
Printer-driver settings override control panel settings. Software application settings override both printer-
driver settings and control panel settings.
The dimensions of custom-size media must be typed at the control panel. If you are using tray 1, the Custom menu
appears when you select
CUSTOM
from the Tray 1 Size menu. If you are using tray 2, tray 3, or tray 4, the Custom menu
appears when you set the custom/standard switch to Custom and close the tray.
Make sure to type the X dimension and Y dimension of the media. The following illustration shows the X and Y dimensions
relative to each of the input trays. The X dimension is measured from the front of the tray to the back of the tray. The Y
dimension is measured from the left of the tray to the right of the tray.
