Adjusting the Level of Curl Correction of a Custom Paper Type

Return to Overview


You can adjust the curl correction level for custom paper types.


Remark
  • This mode may affect paper feeding. Since increasing the value to a great extent may cause paper jams, adjusting the values in small increments is recommended.
  • Only user-registered paper types can be edited.
  • You cannot change the detailed information of paper being used for copying/printing jobs.

  1. Press (Settings/Registration) → [Preferences] → [Paper Settings] → [Paper Type Management Settings].
  1. Select the paper type that you want to edit from the list → press [Details/Edit].
  1. Press [Change] next to [Curl Correction Level].
  1. Press [-] or [+] under <Face Up Output> or <Face Down Output> to correct the level of paper curl → press [OK].

Paper curl is negated by adjusting the paper in the opposite direction to which it is curled. Make test copies or prints on the paper that you have adjusted, and check the curl correction level.

  • To determine the direction of the paper curl, place the paper in the same direction as it is output to the output tray.
  • Adjust the curl correction level in the direction opposite to that of the printed paper.
