The [Media source] setting lists all the rolls and trays that are available to feed the printer with paper (or film). It is also the location from which a user can indicate that the media is manually fed into the printer.
NOTE
This setting is not available for all printer models.
This setting has an impact on the [Media type] and [Media size] settings:
their available values is updated according to the [Media source] information.
their tiles become green if their default value is updated in order to match an explicit media source selection.
According to your printer model, select to print your file on either:
A printer's specific roll or tray (e.g.: [Roll 1] )
An automatic selection of the correct media source according to the size of the output:[Automatic]
A media that is manually fed into the printer (when the printer model and configuration allow to do so, except for the Océ PlotWave 345/365/450/550): [Manual feed]
NOTE
Some printer models, like the Océ PlotWave 900 -among others, allow the definition of 'special media' (for instance, a colored paper). Special media are defined from the printer controller.
From the job submitter interface, an icon with a star next to the name of the [Media source] indicates a special media. Special media are excluded from the automatic selection of the media source, unless they are explicitly selected.
