I am sending a *.pdf 1-page document (A4) by email to my printer. The document is printed, but on photo paper (4"x6"). I cannot find where this (wrong) setting can be changed. Thank you in advance for any guidance you may provide!

Hi KrazyToad,
Thank you for your help. I spoke earlier with one of your colleagues, who after much time trying to find the reason for my problem. It turned out that the file which I was using to test ePrint was a A4 document, but saved as a *.jpg file. The printer automatically recognise it as a picture and send it to the photo tray (Tray 2). Solution: sending the same document as a *.pdf document.
Thank you!
Regards
