Note
“12 × 18” paper size is one size larger than A3 paper size at 504.8 × 457.2
mm.
To print on paper sizes other than the standard sizes, be sure to set the
custom paper sizes in Custom Size Settings first.
When “W” is selected for each standard paper size from the printer driv-
er, the data can be centered and printed.
For example, if A4 size data is created and you want to center and print
on A3 size paper, select “A4W” as the paper size and “Tray 1” or “Bypass
Tray” as the paper tray from the printer driver.
To print, load A3 size paper in the tray (“Tray 1” or “Bypass Tray”) of this
machine that was specified from the printer driver, and then specify the
settings described below from [Basic (Paper)] – [Change Tray Settings] –
[Wide Paper] in the control panel.
Select “A4W”.
Enter the A3 paper size (420.0 × 297.0) in [Change Size].
