About margins

The most common place in the job to enter the margin settings is after the Font ID Assignment or Font Change commands. This is because the font determines the orientation of the page. Refer to ªHow the printer defines a page,ª for additional information on page and font orientations.

You can set:

·All four margins for a page with the Margins command

·One margin individually with the Margin Top, Margin Bottom, Margin Left, or Margin Right commands.

All margins commands are cleared either by another Margins command or by a Reset command.

More about page and font orientations

On a page of single font orientation, if a change of setting for page height and/or top margin is entered within the printable contents of the page, the new setting goes into effect at the start of the next page.

On a page of mixed font orientation, when a change of setting for page height and/or top margin follows a change of orientation, the new setting goes into effect immediately.

Margin settings do not adjust automatically with a change of orientation. If a page is of mixed font orientation, the margins should be reset with each change. If margins from the previous orientation are used, the printer may interpret them as being outside the page boundaries; it then reverts to the default margins.

More about page boundaries

Normally, the printer does not print beyond the right margin nor make line-end decisions. Lines that are too long to fit within the margins will be cut off.

Selecting a larger font after composing a page in a smaller font could cause your text to be cut off at the right margin.
