PRINTING SPECIFIC PAGES ON DIFFERENT PAPER(DIFFERENT PAPER)

Overview

In a Windows environment
The front and back covers and specified pages of a document are printed on paper that is different from the other pages.
Use this function when you wish to print the front and back covers on heavy paper, or insert colored paper or a different paper type at specified pages.
As necessary, paper can be inserted as insertion sheets where nothing is printed.
In a Macintosh environment
The front and back covers are printed using paper that is different from the other pages. This function can be used, for example, when you want to print only the front cover and last page on thick paper.

Operation

Windows
Click the [Special Modes] tab.
Select [Different Paper] and click the [Settings] button.
Select the paper insertion settings.
  • Select the insertion position, paper source, and printing method from the corresponding menus.
  • Click the [Add] button and your settings will appear in "Information".
  • When you have finished selecting settings, click the [Save] button in "Custom Settings" to save the settings.
  • When [Bypass Tray] is selected in "Paper Source", be sure to select the "Paper Type" and load that type of paper in the bypass tray.
  • When [Other Page] is selected for "Insert Position", specify the insert position by directly entering a page number. However, inserts cannot be successively inserted at the same page. When "Printing Method" is set to [2-Sided Print], the specified page and the next page after it will be printed on the front and reverse side of the paper, and thus an insert setting at a page printed on the reverse side will not be effective.
