Why does my newly-installed printer default to duplex/color printing?

I am trying, and failing, to copy a smaller-than-normal document. Why won’t the machine copy?

New multifunction devices have auto paper selections capabilities; if the machine doesn’t recognize the source, it will ask for specific media type.

All machines have the ability to specify certain drawers for particular use, making them only accessible by selection.

Our paper won’t pull from our copier’s large bottom drawer on our copier. Why?

I noticed I was billed a Property Tax amount. We are a not-for-profit organization; why do I have to pay property tax?
