3.10.8 Creating Custom Paper Types
The Type Adjust menu on the operator panel may be used to create a user-defined paper
type for the printer. Custom paper types allow you to optimize printing parameters such as
the fuser temperature best suited for the paper property. It also enables the printer to
automatically select the paper cassette in which the custom paper is loaded as commanded
by the printer driver
Up to eight custom user settings may be registered on the operator panel. Creating a custom
paper type using the operator panel is a 4-step job:
• selecting one of eight custom setting positions (Custom 1 through 8)
• selecting the paper weight
• selecting the fuser temperature
• enabling or disabling duplexing for the paper type
Custom paper types can be reset afterwards by following the steps in Section 3.10.9
Resetting the Custom Paper Type on page 3-80.
