Page 105: Specifying The Amount Of Extension For Borderless Printing
Specifying the Amount of Extension for Borderless Printing Borderless printing may leave margins on the left and right sides of the paper or soil the back of the paper. Adjusting the amount of extension may improve these problems. Each paper width is shown as being a recommended width for borderless printing ( Paper with recommended width ), or as having sufficient width for borderless printing ( Paper of sufficient width ).
Page 106 Specifying Amount of Extension for Paper of sufficient width. In case of Paper of sufficient width, the width of the original is set to be slightly smaller than the paper, and there are margins on the left and right. You can reduce the margins by increasing the amount of extension.
Page 107: Specifying The Ink Drying Time
Specifying the Ink Drying Time When you are using paper that takes longer for ink to adhere, ink may be transferred onto the paper surface during ejection, soiling it. In that case, you may be able to improve the condition by setting the time to wait for the ink to dry after printing.
Page 108 Pause between scans Specify the waiting time between printing one scan on a page and printing the next one. Pause between pages Specify the waiting time between printing one page and ejecting the paper. If there is a next page, it will be printed after the ink drying time has elapsed.
