bottom, and side margins for your print jobs are set through your print application.

printable area is reported to the host. Clipping occurs if data is
printed outside the printable area. All four edges will clip.
4028 Print Page The printable area is 50 pels (4mm) inside the physical page. The
printable area is reported to the host. If the logical page is outside
the printable area it is moved down and to the right. The right and
bottom edges will be clipped.
Physical Page The printable area is the physical page (edge to edge). The
physical page printable area is reported to the host. With this
setting active, you may need to adjust the left margin setting.
Note: Only the Optra S/Se printer can physically print edge
to edge. No clipping will occur. Continual printing
within 50 pels of the paper edge is not recommended.
It can result in poor print quality and paper jams due
to toner contamination of the paper path. All other
printer models will report the physical page printable
area but will clip any text printed within 50 pels of any
edge.
Full Page The job is formatted for a page using a printable area, which is
edge to edge. However, when the page is actually printed, the
page image is compressed 2% in both the horizontal and vertical
directions.
Note: Full Page is only available on the Optra S/Se printer
models.
