Making settings in the Page Setup dialog box

Paper Size

Select the paper size that you want to use. If you want to define a custom paper size, see Defining a custom paper size.

Paper Source

Select the paper source you wish to use from the following selections:

Sheet Feeder:
Select this to leave a 3-mm margin on both the right and the left sides of the paper. This option is available when printing on normal paper.

Roll Paper:
Select this to leave a 3-mm margin on both the right and the left sides of roll paper.

No Margins

Check this box when you want to print with no margins.

Sheet Feeder:
Select this to leave no margins on all four sides of the paper. This option is available only when printing with paper that is in the Paper size list.

Roll Paper:
Select this to leave no margins on all four sides of the roll paper. This option is available only when printing with paper that is on the Paper size list.

You can use the following media with this feature:

Photo Paper:
Panoramic, A4, 4 x 6" (No Perforations), 100 x 150 mm

Matte Paper-Heavyweight:
A4

Index Card:
5 x 8"

Note
If your application has margin settings, make sure they are set to zero before printing.

When using this feature with Roll Paper, you need to use your image-editing software to make the image 4 mm wider than the roll paper.

Printing with this feature selected takes longer than for normal printing.

Because this feature enlarges the image to a size slightly larger than the paper size when Sheet Feeder is selected as the Paper Source setting, the portion of the image that extends beyond the edges of the paper will not be printed.

Print quality may decline in the top and bottom areas of the printout, or the area may be smeared when printing on media other than that listed above. We recommend printing a single sheet to check quality before printing large jobs.

You cannot use this feature with the following media: Photo Quality Glossy Film, Ink Jet Transparencies, Iron-On Cool Peel Transfer Paper, 360 dpi Ink Jet Paper.

Orientation

Select Portrait (tall) or Landscape (wide) to change the orientation of your printout. To print close to the bottom of the page, select the Rotate by 180 degrees check box.

Reduce or Enlarge

Use this setting to reduce or enlarge the size of your image between 25% and 400%.

Printable Area

Use this option in the Printable Area Box to adjust the total area available for printing when Sheet Feeder is selected as the Paper Source setting. This feature is not available when No Margins or Roll Paper is selected.

To center the printout, select Center. To increase the printable area at the bottom edge from 14 mm to 3 mm, select Maximum. Do not select Maximum while using Premium Glossy Photo Paper.

Note:
The print quality may decline at the edges of the printout when Maximum is selected as the Printable Area setting. Before printing large jobs using this setting, print a single sheet to confirm quality.
When Maximum is selected, make sure that the paper loaded in the sheet feeder is not curled.
If you select Maximum when printing on Premium Glossy Photo Paper, your printout may be smeared in the expanded area (between 14 mm and 3 mm from the bottom edge).

Roll Paper Option

The Roll Paper Option settings are only available when Roll Paper is selected as the Paper Source setting. These features are not available when Sheet Feeder is selected.

The settings are as described below.

Banner Mode:
Select this mode when you want to print multi-page data as continuous data on the roll paper, rather than as individual pages. When this check box is selected, the Save roll paper check box is enabled.

Cut Sheet Mode:
Select this mode when you want to print multi-page data as individual pages, rather than as continuous data. When this check box is selected, the Print page frame check box is enabled.

Save roll paper:
Select this check box when you want to save roll paper. When this check box is selected, the blank portion of the last page of your document is not fed through the printer. This feature is only available when Banner Mode is selected.

Print page frame:
Select this check box to print a line on the roll paper between pages in a multi-page document to indicate where the paper should be cut. This feature is useful when it is unclear where the page breaks should be. This feature is only available when Cut Sheet Mode is selected.
