Printing with the Pocket Printer A6
The Pocket Printer A6 functions as a Windows printer, and is available in all
applications that allow printing. After the drivers have been installed, connect the
printer and turn it on. Then, simply select the Pocket Printer A6 when you print from
an application.
Paper Settings
The Pocket Printer A6 is capable of automatically resizing documents from A4 or
Letter size to A6. This feature allows you to leave your applications set for Letter size
paper, which is convenient if you use other full-size printers. To configure the printer
to automatically resize to A6 paper, do the following:
Click on" Start" and select "Settings". Click on " Printers"
Right click on the Pocket Printer A6 icon and select “Properties”
Click on the “Paper” tab. Select “A4”
Click on the “Device Options” tab. Set “Image Control” to 50%
Note: The Pocket Printer A6 uses A6 size paper (4 1/8” x 5 3/4”). When it is
enlarged 200% on a copy machine, it will produce approximately Letter or A4 size
(8.5 x 11.7).
If you prefer to change the page setup or layout manually using your application,
then do the following to configure the printer:
Click on" Start" and select "Settings". Click on " Printers"
Right click on the Pocket Printer A6 icon and select “Properties”
Click on the “Paper” tab. Select “A6” or “A6 Roll”
Click on the “Device Options” tab. Set “Image Control” to 100%
