Changing the Paper Size or Type

The original is printed after it is enlarged or reduced by a ratio that is automatically determined by the original size and paper size.

If you select a paper size larger than the original size, the original is enlarged to the paper size. If you select a paper size smaller than the original size, the original is reduced to the paper size.

In [Paper Size] in the [Basic] tab, select the size of paper for printing. The zoom ratio is automatically determined by the paper sizes selected in [Original Size] and [Paper Size].

Tips

• This function is enabled when [Zoom] is set to [Auto].

You can print the original image after it has been enlarged or reduced by the desired zoom ratio. The zoom ratio can be specified to be between 25% and 400% (in increments of 1%).

In [Zoom] in the [Basic] tab, specify the zoom ratio. When specifying the common zoom ratio in the vertical and horizontal directions, select [Manual], and specify the zoom ratio. When specifying a different zoom ratio in the vertical and horizontal directions, select [Variable], and specify the zoom ratio.

For originals of a special size, print them on custom-size paper.

This section explains how to load custom-size paper into the Bypass Tray.

Tips

• For details on the trays into which you can load custom-size paper and the available range of sizes, refer to Paper.
• When you are using the PCL driver, you can select [Save Custom Size...] in the [Settings] tab on the [Printer properties] screen to register a custom size of paper. The registered paper size can be selected from [Original Size] in the [Basic] tab.

In [Paper Type] in the [Basic] tab, select the type of paper for printing.

When [Paper Settings for Each Tray] is enabled in the [Settings] tab of the printer driver, select [Paper Settings for Each Tray...] in the [Basic] tab, and specify the paper type for each tray.

Tips

• If you select [Auto], the paper tray for the paper you have selected in [Paper Size] is automatically selected.

You can print the original on different sheets of paper loaded into multiple trays. Because you can obtain printing results that look like carbon-copied slips using the print command once, this function is called Carbon Copy.

For example, by using the print command once, you can print a submission document on high-quality color paper loaded in Tray 1 and print your copy on recycled paper loaded in Tray 2.

This function is useful when you want to create a submission document and its copy at one time.

In [Paper Tray] in the [Basic] tab, select the paper tray for printing the original.

Specify the paper tray for carbon copies and output order.
