Loading Paper for Receiving Faxes
The instructions for loading paper in the paper input tray are the same
whether you are printing, faxing, or copying, except that faxes can only
be printed on letter-, A4-, or legal-sized paper. See “Loading Paper” on
page xx for instructions.
After loading paper for receiving faxes, set the paper size to the size of
paper you normally load in the paper input tray. SF-4700 Series product
uses this setting when printing reports and determining autoreduction for
incoming faxes. See page xx to set the paper size.
Note: The printing function does not use this setting. If you are loading
special-sized media only for your current print job, do not change this
setting. After you have finished printing, reload the original paper.
