Overview of [Paper Setting]

The [Paper Setting] offers two types of usage depending on what the setting is intended for.

One is the [Paper Setting] that allows you to set paper conditions to a paper tray.

The other is the [Paper Setting] that allows you to register paper conditions according to paper to be used.

This section describes how to make the [Paper Setting] for a paper tray. It also describes how to register set paper conditions.

The Paper Setting can be made for the following trays:

  • Trays of Paper Feeder Unit PF-707 (Tray 1 to Tray 9)

  • Trays of Paper Feeder Unit PF-708 (Tray 1 to Tray 3)

  • Upper tray/lower tray of the post inserter of Folding Unit FD-503 (PI 1, PI 2)

  • Upper tray/lower tray of Post Inserter PI-502 to be mounted on Finisher FS-532 (PI 1, PI 2)

  • Cover tray of Perfect Binder PB-503 (PB)

[Paper Setting] for the tray to be used consists of the following paper conditions that can be specified as desired.

It is advisable to perform Both Sides Adjust for every paper to be used, as the shrinkage ratio differs according to the paper type, paper brand, or difference in temperature of storage location.

It is possible to disable the horizontal zoom setting for the back page in [Common Setting] of the administrator setting.

This option also allows you to adjust the registration loop before using the Both Sides Adjust function.
