 Trimming Function
A trimming function is provided as a means of coordinating an image with the 
types of photo frames handled by the printer. This function can be switched On/
Off. This function is described briefly below.
The printed photo frame and an image to be printed are matched in length along 
one side and the image is resized along the perpendicular side to fit the frame on 
that side. Any part of the image that does not fit within the photo frame is trimmed 
away (not printed). However, if the number of pixels of the longer side of the 
image are more than twice as long as the shortest side, the trimming function is not 
effective when printing even the trimming is set. The trimming function is always 
set On if borderless or upper half layout is selected.

 Rules on Numbering and Rotating Images
The numbers shown in Figure 1-9 indicate the photo frame numbers used for the 
print layout. Horizontally oriented images are printed as shown by the numbers. 
Vertically oriented images, which has more pixels vertically than horizontally, the 
vertical photo data is allocated instead, and the number shown in the figure below 
is then rotated 90 degrees before being printed. In Index printing mode, the 
numbers are printed as they are shown below, regardless of the shape of the photo 
data. 
However, when the photo data has an equal number of pixels vertically and 
horizontally the photos are printed without rotation, regardless of the layout.
NOTE: The vertical photo data refers to when the photo data file itself is set for a 
vertical (portrait) orientation. Photo data is defined as the vertical photo 
data if it is taken by a digital camera with a portrait position detecting 
function.)
