Custom Size Paper in Tray 1
You can print on custom-size paper from
Tray 1. The largest size of paper
supported is 11.7 x 17.7 in (297 x 450
mm). The smallest size is 3.9 x 7.5 in (99
x 191 mm). When you select maximum
size of paper, the printer assumes the
maximum page size is 11.7 x 17.7 in (297
x 450 mm).
Printing on the
Smallest-Sized Paper
Some applications require you to calculate
margins in order to print on custom-size
paper. The following example is provided
as a guideline. Adapt this example to your
paper size and unit of measurement.
1 In your software application, select
Tray 1 for the paper source and
Maximum (Windows PCL) or
Oversize (Macintosh and Windows
PostScript) for the paper size.
2 Calculate margins to identify the area
to be printed. Illustration 2 and steps
2a and 2b show how to calculate a
margin for 3.9 x 7.5-in (99 x 191 mm)
paper.
a. Take the maximum paper width
size 11.7 in (297 mm) and subtract
3.9 in (99 mm) for the width of the
paper. Take the answer, 7.8 in (198
mm), and divide it by 2, which equals
3.9 in (99 mm).
In your software application, select a
left margin of 3.9 in (99 mm) and a
right margin of 3.9 in (99 mm).
b. If your software allows, also set the
bottom margin. Take the maximum
paper length size, 17.7 in (450 mm),
and subtract 7.5 in (191 mm), the
length of the paper. The bottom
margin equals 10.2 in (259 mm).
