Konica Minolta C227 paper size bypass

[Maximo]

Hello,


I have a c227 at my work place and when printing from some pc's i always get that paper size error 8 1/2 x 11 paper format and i have to select manually a4 from the printer.

Is there a way to auto switch 8 1/2 x 11 to a4 from the printer so i don't have to always select it manually?

Thanks alot!

This will result in the opposite message when you send 8.5x11. If you are UK based, then your MFP should be in the UK marketing area, US if in the US. Sounds like the driver is "choosing trays based on paper size". Try turning this off or set the PDF properties to reflect 8.5x11. Emujo

Utility -> user settings -> printer settings -> basic settings -> letter to A4 override (scrawl down)

Or

Do the right thing and goto devices and printers -> printer properties -> advanced tab -> default settings and change it permanently.
Its happens when the computer is not setup with correct regional settings.

there is a metric/inch selection somewhere too.
is A4 in the trays? there is also a driver override for the bypass tray.

Look for "A4/A3<->LTR/LGR Auto Switch", I can't see in your picture if it's off or on.

+1 on the settings through the print properties but both suggested options should do the trick.

okay I am searching for answers on same machine .. Canadian machine had driver issues printing machine kept saying a4 paper in trays. trays have letter same thing with manual feed reinstalled all drivers on all computers updated firmware thought problem was gone after 2 months customer sends long email about how it has never worked.. I look at keyboard and I can see that some of the cassettes are showing a4,b4 sizes turn off copier turn back on its good pull out cassette push in cassette and its okay customer tries it and really closes cassette hard and it goes back to a4. turn off machine turn on and its okay, any body seeing this as well turns out I know have a second c227 doing the same thing
