You may have asked to rotate the page from portrait to landscape on a paper size that is not wide
enough.
●
If necessary, change the printable area in your software.
There is another possible explanation for a clipped image. Some applications, such as Adobe
Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and CorelDRAW, use an internal 16–bit coordinate system which means
that they cannot handle an image of more than 32,768 pixels. If you try to print an image larger than this
from these applications, the bottom of the image will be clipped. In this case, the only way to print the
whole image is to reduce the resolution so that the whole image requires fewer than 32,768 pixels. The
HP-GL/2 printer driver contains an option called Compatibility with 16-bit applications, which can be
used to reduce the resolution of such images automatically. You can find this option by selecting the
driver's Advanced tab, then Document options, then Printer features.
The image is in one portion of the printing area

Have you selected too small a page size in your application?
● Does your application think that the image is in one portion of the page?
The image is unexpectedly rotated
At the front panel, select the icon, then Default printing options > Paper options > Rotate. Check
that the setting is what you wanted.
For non-PostScript files: if Nesting is On, pages may be automatically rotated to save paper. See
Rotate an image.
The print is a mirror image of the original
At the front panel, select the icon, then Default printing options > Paper options > Enable mirror.
Check that the setting is what you wanted.
The print is distorted or unintelligible
● The interface cable connecting your printer to your network (or to your computer) could be faulty.
Try another cable.
● If the front-panel graphic language setting is Automatic (the default), try the other settings:
PostScript for a PostScript file, HP-GL/2 for an HP-GL/2 file etc. (see Using your printer on CD).
Then send the file again.
● Depending on the software, drivers, and RIPs you are using with your printer, there will be different
ways of solving this problem. Refer to the vendor's user documentation for details.
