Substitute Size

Off*
Letter / A4
11x17 / A3
All Listed

Select Letter / A4 if you want the printer to automatically print A4 jobs on letter size paper and
letter jobs on A4 size paper, if the requested size is not currently installed in the printer.
Likewise, select 11x17 / A3 if you want the printer to automatically print 11x17 jobs on A3 size
paper and A3 jobs on 11x17 size paper, if the requested size is not available.

Select All Listed if you want to substitute paper sizes in both cases.

If the printer substitutes a paper size other than the one requested for the job, the printer may
have to clip the image to fit on the new page size. Some data may be lost.

If you do not want the printer to substitute paper sizes automatically, select Off. The printer
then prompts you to load the requested paper size, if it is not installed.

Configure MP

Cassette*
Manual
First

When the multipurpose feeder (MP) is configured as a Cassette, the printer treats it like any
other tray. If a print job requests a size paper that is only loaded in the multipurpose feeder,
the printer picks paper from the multipurpose feeder to print the job.

Set Configure MP to Manual to use the multipurpose feeder strictly for manual feed of single
sheets or envelopes.

If you set Configure MP to First, the printer feeds paper from the multipurpose feeder until it is
empty, regardless of the paper source or paper size requested for the job. When the multi-
purpose feeder is empty, the printer then feeds paper from the source containing the
requested size.

Size Detection

A3 & B4* (Country specific)

11x17 & Legal* (Country specific)

The printer determines the size paper loaded in the trays by the position of the rear paper
guide. However, the printer can only recognize A3 and B4 size paper

or

11x17 and legal size

paper. You must decide which of the pairs of paper sizes you want your trays to support. (You
can still load the paper sizes you don’t select in the multipurpose feeder.) For example, if you
select A3 & B4 and send a job formatted for legal size paper, the printer displays a message
asking you to load legal size paper in the multipurpose feeder.

Note: Changing the Size Detection setting automatically resets the printer.
