3100CN Paper Types & Specs

I looked through the Dell user guide & online forum, but I can't seem to find a good definition, description or specification on how Dell classifies it's different Paper types.

It's pretty obvious these have to do with types of paper & paper weights, but I don't have a clue as to when I should set Plain Paper 1 vs PP2 or Coated Paper 1 vs CP2, etc. By Covers, does it mean the heavier card stock paper? If anyone has any sort of guidance or can point me to a good source, it'd be much appreciated. I listed the Paper Types below...

Thanks

--Mike
