Media Types

The printing system automatically selects the paper size specified in the Page Sizes
setting in the Basic tab by default when you are printing on regular paper. However,
the printing system supports a wide variety of printing media depending on your
printing system model.

You can specify the media type in the Media type setting for auto media selection
when using non-standard types of printing media, such as recycled paper, labels, or
transparencies. You can also specify the finishing settings for best results. Automatic
selection of media types can be disabled in the PCL XL settings dialog box. For
further details, refer to

Page Description Language (PDL)

on page 2-5.

Labels, transparencies, and envelopes must be printed using the MP tray. Ensure
the paper is properly loaded by following the instructions outlined in the printing
system's Operation Guide.

Note: The default setting is for Source and Media type to be separate items in the
dialog box, but it is possible to combine them using a setting in Compatibility
Settings
. If they are combined, the Media type list is not available. To change this
setting, open Printer Properties from the Microsoft Windows Printer and Faxes
window, go to Device settings and then Compatibility Settings, and then clear the
Combine source and media type lists selection.

When paper is properly loaded in the paper cassette, the printing system can
automatically detect the paper size. However, it is necessary to use the operation
panel on the printing system to assign the media type of the paper cassette so that
the printing system can recognize it. The steps to specify the media settings are
listed below.
