Printing data

Because this option enlarges the image to a size slightly larger than the paper size, the portion of the image that extends beyond the edges of the paper will not be printed.

When creating your printing data using an application, note the following:

Printing on single sheet

You need to fit your data to the size of paper. If your application has margin settings, make sure they are set to zero before printing.
