7.5 Special functions of the Windows 98 Version Printer Driver
The following dialog shows the Paper tab of the Windows 98 printer driver.
The Unprintable Area function does not exist in the driver property setting for the NT4 environment. Here is some
supplemental explanation.

This setting configures the Unprintable Area of the currently-selected paper. Each margin value is the standard value of the
Unprintable Area. The printer driver notifies an application of the Unprintable Area sizes (top/bottom/right/left) that a user has
selected/changed.
When the printer’s TOF position/paper auto exit position (see below) is changed in the printer side, this setting is used to
adjust the driver’s TOF position/paper auto exit position to the positions set in the printer. The TOF position/paper auto exit
position is the paper feed position that the printer mechanically registers when paper is inserted, regardless of data from the
host
Next, the margin (top/bottom/right/left) setting that is usually done in Page Setup in an application configures the Unprintable
Area of the application within the above-mentioned Unprintable Area (within the larger printable area). Therefore, setting
Unprintable Area and Margin in an application are totally different functions.
For example, if you set “Unprintable Area Top 1 inch” and set “Top Margin 2 inches (Unprintable Area: 1 inch is
included)” in the menu of an application, the printer behaves as follows.
