Printing Area
To ensure the best print quality, the printer allows a margin along each edge of the media.
(The printing area varies according to the media size.)
Note that the term "printing area" represents both the recommended area for the optimum
print quality and the entire area where the printer can technically print.
The following key is provided to show you how these areas are shown in
the illustrations that follow.
Printing area (dark blue): Canon recommends that you print within
this area. ( )
Printable area (light blue): The area where it is possible to print.

paper feed precision.
