Registering Frequently Used Paper Types

You can copy one of the paper types already registered in the machine, change the name and paper information, and register it as a new paper type (custom type).
If misfeeds or print quality degradation occurs with a certain paper type, you may be able to solve the problem by using a custom paper type in which the paper information is changed according to the characteristics of the paper.
