Printing on Long Paper

When printing on long paper, change the paper type setting, and use the MP tray and rear output tray.

Set a paper size for the MP tray on the operator panel. Then, register a paper size and paper weight with a printer driver.

Paper sizes of from 55 to 297 mm in width and from 90 to 1321 mm in length can be registered.

Note

  • This function may not be available for some applications.
