Terms and Symbols for the Type of Printer Paper
A few special terms and symbols are used in this manual to designate the types of printer paper.
Feeding Direction (printer paper path)
In this system, printer paper is taken up from the left-hand side of the unit and fed through the unit toward
the right-hand side, face-down onto the Exit Tray. In the figure below, the direction in which the printer
paper is fed, as indicated by the arrow, is called the “feeding direction”.
“Width” and “Length”
When the size of the print is described, side A is referred to as the
“width” and side B as the “length”.
A: Width
B: Length
Terms and Symbols
<Lengthwise >
When the original or print has a “length” longer than its “width,”
we call it “lengthwise” and use symbol “L” or “ .”
<Crosswise >
When the original or print has a “length” shorter than its “width,”
we call it “crosswise” and use symbol “C” or “ .”
