About <Free Size>
If you frequently need to change the paper to be loaded, set to <Free Size>; this will reduce the number of steps required to change the setting each time. You can also display an error message when the setting in the printer driver is significantly different from the size of the loaded paper. <Ppr Size Mismatch for Free Size Ppr Src>
If the displayed paper size is different from the loaded paper size, the paper may not be loaded properly. Load the paper again.
When printing on paper with a width shorter than 148 mm, the paper may be fed at an angle, resulting in a skewed printed image.

About <Free>
If you frequently need to change the paper to be loaded, set to <Free>; this will reduce the number of steps required to change the setting each time. However, take note that this setting lets the machine perform printing even if there is mismatch between the paper type setting in the printer driver and the paper type actually loaded in the machine.
If the paper type is set to [Auto] in the printer driver, the paper type set in the selected paper source is used.
To check the detailed settings for a paper type, select <Details> select the paper type to check.
