Cause 1 The [Output Size] setting of the current print job is different from the [Output
Size] setting of the previous job.
Remedy To print on the paper currently loaded in the printer, click [ ] (Error
Recovery) in the Printer Status Window. To print on different paper than the
paper currently loaded in the printer, reload the new paper then click [ ]
(Error Recovery) in the Printer Status Window.
Cause 2 [Detect Paper Size in Multi-purpose Tray] is selected.
Remedy If you clear the checkmark from the [Detect Paper Size in Multi-purpose Tray]
checkbox, printing continues on the paper that is currently loaded in the printer
without displaying a message, regardless of the [Output Size] setting.
You can adjust the [Detect Paper Size in Multi-purpose Tray] setting in the
[Finishing Details] dialog box by clicking [Finishing Details] in the [Finishing]
sheet.
