Depending on the features
supported by your configured plotter, you can modify the paper source,
type, and size of your paper.
You can specify whether you want to print on both
sides or just one side. If your printer supports cutting, collating,
and stapling, you can specify your choice under the Media Destination
option. For Windows system printers, you must configure the Media
settings using the Custom Properties option.

use. Select Automatic to tell the printer to select the appropriate
paper source.
