source tray. For information about media sources, see the

The Type is: drop-down menu shows all of the media types that the HP LaserJet 9050 printer
supports. When you use the default setting, Unspecified, the printer uses the default media type,
which is usually Plain.
No mechanism exists for manually adding custom media types through the driver. Custom types can
be added only by using the bidirectional communication mechanism, so they must already exist in
the product when the bidirectional query occurs. If bidirectional communication is enabled, then the
information returned is an updated list of media types. If bidirectional communication is not enabled,
then the driver looks for custom media types saved from a previous bidirectional communication
query, and uses those. Otherwise, no custom media types are available through the driver.
The following standard types appear in the lists:
■ Unspecified
■ Plain
■ Preprinted
■ Letterhead
■ Transparency
■ Prepunched
■ Labels
■ Bond
■ Recycled
■ Color
■ Cardstock
