[Media type]

Definition

The [Media type] setting displays the list of the different types of media, qualities of paper, that can be installed on the connected printer.

Select your media type from the list..

NOTE
  • A blue roll icon is displayed when both the size and the type of the media are available.

  • When the requested media type is not loaded, the application displays a warning. The warning does not prevent from submitting the job to the printer.

  • Some media types and delivery destinations are incompatible. When an incompatible combination occurs, the application displays a message and prevents from submitting the job.

  • For Canon imagePROGRAF printers, the media type setting is displayed in the printer driver language.

  • When a loaded media type on a Canon imagePROGRAF printer is not available in the driver, it cannot be used for printing.

Automatic behaviour

The [Media type] list proposes the [Any type] value. When you select [Any type], the media type that best fits your document size is automatically selected.
