The plotter looks to the plot you have sent for

 

 

a page size instruction. If it is present the

 

 

plotter uses this. If not, the plotted page size

 

 

is the inked area plus margins.

 

 

 

Inked area

 

The plotted page size is the inked area plus

 

 

margins. For a definition of ªinked areaº, see

 

 

page 4-2.

The plotted page size is exactly the size you

 

 

 

 

specify. The largest discrete page size you

can specify depends whether your plotter is

an E-size or D-size model.

 

 

 

 

If you need to adjust the page size from the front panel, do so before sending the plot file from your computer, as the plotter determines the size of a plot at the time it is received from your application.
