Page size is generally set by the application that is sending the file.

Go under the "File" menu select "Page Setup" and verify that you have "Legal" set as the page size for the application.

You can also enter the printer driver, select printer properties and then set the page size to legal. However, if the application is set to "Letter" you will get a call to change the paper size.

Everytime i print something in a label sized setting it always cuts into short

Before printing try using print preview first and adjust yur settings from there. Or go into control panel select printers and reset to default settings, restart your computer and try again. Good luck.

My printer won't print letter automatically. It's stuck on printing only legal. If I pull legal tray out it will print letter. But I need it to adjust with alternating print jobs.

Printer wont stop paper, if any page length mismatch,Select page length as any size, as well as while shooting the print command select page length as legal & try it. I feel that teflon not rotating properly, result paper jamming at bottom end. If any paper length faulty printer detects the length give message of mis match..Pl check carefully...

Out of paper error

You just have to do is jsut adjust the size of the print you are taking. For eg. If you are printing the paper of A4 in a legal size of paper than the above error will be raised. Just adjust A4 to legal(As per the example. You have to choose as per your own need.)

The printer is asking to load legal paper in Tray 1 but legal paper does not fit in Tray 1. How can I redirect it to mfp?

Paper up tp 14" long will fit in the paper tray.

Remove the paper tray fully from the printer.

You'll see a blue tab at the rear edge of the tray, this releases the adjustment of the length of the paper tray. Adjust to the size you need, and replace the paper tray.

NOTE when new (and in the box), the printer has tape on the paper cover (at the back of the printer), make sure this has been removed, as it will prevent the paper tray being pushed fully 'home' when adjusted to a large paper size.

If you print a lot on both A4 and Legal size, maybe it would be worth buying a second paper tray and leaving them set for the different sizes you use.

Although my document is set up for legal size when I print it only prints to the end of the letter size (on the legal size paper).

Try adjusting your paper try or you might just be low on your toner. How long have you had this printer and what kind is it?

Cannot print to legal size paper format

There could be a few issues causing this problem.
1. Your document size on the actual document you are attempting to print believes it is letter (which is the default).
To change this setting, you must tell the computer you wish to print on legal paper.

To do this in MS. OUTLOOK:
Put the curser at the top of the page
then...under 'File-Print-Preferences-Layout-Advanced-Paper size-change to legal (from Letter'
-slightly tedious...but follow along and this should help

2. The printer needs to be adjusted to hold the legal paper.
Open up the legal tray to adjust the paper holder to hold the paper snuggly...it slides roughly.

Hope this helps..if you need more assistance please ask...also please rate my solution.
PLEASE note that anything other than a FIX-YA is actually a negative rank...and will lower my success...I didn't make the system...but that is the way it is in FIX-YA.
thanks
