Selecting the Correct Media Type

The printer automatically adjusts itself for the type of paper you select in your print settings. That is why the Paper Type or Media Type setting is so important. It tells your printer what kind of paper you are using and adjusts the ink coverage accordingly. The table below lists the settings you should choose for your paper.
