Adjust the margins

The printer margins determine the printable area of the page that can be used by your application. There are three margin options: Small, Normal, and Extended (see also Print without added margins). For the dimensions of the margins, see Functional specifications.

You can specify the margins in the following ways:

●Using the Windows HP-GL/2 printer driver: Normal margins are selected by default. To select the other options, select the Paper/Quality tab and press the Margins/Layout button.

●Using the Windows PostScript printer driver: select the Paper/Quality tab, then Size is. You select the page size and the margins at the same time.

●Using a Mac OS printer driver: select Page Setup from the File menu, then Paper size. You select the page size and the margins at the same time.

●Using the Embedded Web Server: select from the Margins list on the Submit Job page.

●Using the front panel: select the icon, then Default printing options > Paper options > Select margins.

NOTE If margins are set with the printer driver or with the Embedded Web Server, they override the margins set with the front panel.

Print on oversize pages

For technical reasons, it is impossible to print an image that covers the full width or length of the paper. There must always be a margin around the image. However, if you want to print, for example, an A3-sized image with no margins around it, you can print on paper larger than A3 (leaving margins around the image as usual), and then cut off the margins after printing.

Oversize page layouts are designed for this purpose. Each oversize page is large enough to accommodate a standard paper size plus margins.

You can specify an oversize page layout in the following ways:

●Using the Windows HP-GL/2 printer driver: select the Paper/Quality tab and press the Margins/ Layout button, then select Oversize from the layout options.

●Using the Windows PostScript printer driver: select the Paper/Quality tab, then Size is. You select the oversize page and the margins at the same time.
