Section 5: Configuration Parameters
Printer Option Front Panel Menu
Margins

The Printer Options are common for both Coax and Twinax mode and
relates to Printer Specific features such as physical printable area and paper
tray actions. Certain features of the printer can automatically be detected
on the Optra and 4039 Plus models, and be reported back to the system
in an IPDS reply. The options can however be set to override this feature.
The automatic detection in "Printer Options" applies to the following
features:
Number of Trays
Envelope Feed support
Paper Size, for Tray 1, 2 and Envelope feed
Duplex support
The margin settings are used for adjusting the position of the printable
area. All data are affected by this set of margins, which could be compared
to movements of the tractor feeder and paper knob of a matrix printer. An
example of the menu operation for changing margins is shown in figure 6.
Figure 6.
The interface has been preset with all margins at zero. This adjustment
corresponds to the center position of a page printed on an IBM 3816
printer. However, the AFP IOP is limited by the Lexmark Optra and
4039 logical page area in PCL mode, which means the printable area is
truncated by 50 pels for all four sides of the paper. The example in figure
6 shows a negative adjustment of 1/30", i.e. all print data coming from the
AFP IOP will be printed with this displacement. However the negative
adjustment might cause the top area of the printout to be truncated.
