Intelligent media sensor automatically detects the type of paper loaded in a tray, and helps the user select the paper type, offering the simple operability.
When Intelligent media sensor is mounted, be sure to note the following points.
Do not use an envelope with an open window cut out or windowed envelope with attached cellophane. Also, the paper type may not be correctly detected depending on the paper conditions. For details on the unavailable paper, refer to Inapplicable paper.
An envelope of which the inside was stuck due to static electricity may not be correctly detected.
The multi-fed sheets may not be correctly detected.
Even if paper is detected as recycled paper, it may be displayed as plain paper depending on the setting.
For single side only paper (reverse side), the paper type may not be correctly detected.
Special paper, glossy paper, matte paper, single side only paper (reverse side), label paper, index paper, or postcard may not be correctly detected.
If plain paper, recycled paper, or envelope cannot be correctly detected, contact your service representative.
The pre-print paper (paper on which the company name or logo is printed) may not be correctly detected.
If the paper that you normally use is not correctly detected at frequent intervals, select [Utility] - [Expert Adjustment] - [Auto Paper Detection Setting] to make adjustments.
