print job.

cassette unit.
If you select Auto, paper feeds from the paper source containing paper that matches your
Paper Size setting.
If an envelope size (DL, C5, IB5) is selected as the Page Size setting, paper always feeds
from the MP tray. If you select Thick, ExtraThk, or Trnsprncy as the Paper Type setting,
paper always feeds from the MP tray.
MP Mode
This setting determines whether the MP tray has the highest or lowest priority when Auto
is selected as the Paper Source setting in the printer driver. When Normal is selected as
the MP Mode, the MP tray has the highest priority as the paper source. If you select Last,
the MP tray has the lowest priority.
