Printable Area
This section describes the area on paper that can be printed.
Standard Printable Area
The standard printable area is the area of a sheet of paper excluding the 4.0 mm margins
on all four edges of paper. The actual printable area, however, may vary depending on the
printer (plotter) control language.
Extended Printable Area
When you select the extended printable area setting for both the printable area and the
print assured area, you can expand the width and length to 297.0 x 449.2 mm for printing,
and 297.0 x 432.0 mm for copying. Please note that the print assured area is the area of a
sheet of paper excluding 4.0 mm margins on all four edges of paper, and the unprintable
areas may vary depending on the paper size.
Note • To extend the printable area, change the PCL print driver setting, or the [Print Area] setting on the
touch screen.
For more information on the setting method on the print driver, refer to the help provided for the print driver. For more
information on the setting on the control panel, refer to "Print Area" (P.208).
