Printable Area of Fanfold Page
You should leave a 1 in margin at both the top and the bottom of the
page. This provides for a margin of six lines at 1/6 in line spacing. Even
though printing in Area 1 (before or after the perforation) may be
possible, you should keep in mind that paper feed precision is reliable
only within the Assured Print Area.
