Digital BW, The Print

Thanks for responding Clayton.

I'm not sure what you mean about going back to the picklist?

Here is as far as I get (notice it shows Manual - Roll):

With Manual Roll selected I can now choose Velvet. However, I can not go back to Page 
Setup to choose Standard (the only other choice). If I do so it resets all the print settings.

If I try to print just as my sample above w/ Manual Roll selected and through the 
traditional top feeder I get an error and the print job is supended.
