Figure 5-8 Paper Options group box
The appearance of the Paper Options group box changes when the Use Different Paper/Covers
check box is selected. The following settings in the Paper Options group box are available:
Size is: drop-down menu
Source Is: drop-down menu
Type is: drop-down menu
Use Different Paper/Covers options
Size is: drop-down menu
The Size is: drop-down menu lists all of the supported media sizes.
You can specify size for all the settings in the Paper Options group box. Use the same size of media
for the entire print job. That is, if the print job uses Letter-size media, any option that you select from the
available Use Different Paper options must also use Letter-size media.
NOTE Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different media
sizes within a single document.
For the Other Pages and Back Cover settings, you can select a source (tray) and media type that differ
from the settings selected for First Page. If a conflict exists among media source, media size, and/or
media type, and you choose to keep the conflicting settings, the settings are processed in the following
order: media size, media type, and then media source.
Because driver settings are overridden by media-size settings in most software programs, it is generally
best to use the driver to set media size only for software programs that lack a media-size setting, such
as NotePad, or when you are producing a book or a booklet that does not require different media sizes.
NOTE When you use a software program with a media-size setting, you can specify different
media sizes within a single document by using the Use Different Paper/Covers options. For
more information, see
Use Different Paper/Covers options.
