Printable Area
This section describes the area on paper that can be printed.
Standard Printable Area
The standard printable area is the area of a sheet of paper excluding the 4.0 mm
margins on all four edges of paper. For SRA3 paper (width of 320 mm), the printable
area of the paper is the area excluding the 11.5 mm left and right margins. The actual
printable area, however, may vary depending on the printer (plotter) control language.
Extended Printable Area
When you select the extended printable area setting for printing, you can expand the
width and length of the printable area to 305.0 x 476.6 mm and the print assured area
to 297.0 x 476.6 mm. For copying, the printable area and the print assured area can be
extended up to 297.0 x 432.0 mm. The area of paper you can print to, however, may
vary depending on the size of paper.
Note • To extend the printable area, change the PCL print driver setting, or the [Print Area] setting
on the touch screen.
For more information on the setting method on the print driver, refer to the help provided for the print
driver. For more information on the setting on the control panel, refer to "Print Area" (P.196).
