Printing on Oversize Paper
Printing on Oversize Paper
You can print all areas of the original at full scale by selecting the paper size from Oversize (sizes where the margins
needed for printer operation have been added to the page size).
We recommend when printing with a focus on image.
•
If you prepare an original for printing without a margin and print it on paper of regular size, the image near the edge will not be
printed.
Note
• Oversize
When printing on standard paper sizes, printing is performed by taking the margins necessary for printer opera-
tions inside the region of the original. (See "Print Area.")
mm) original shown in Figure (b) gives the result as shown in Figure (a).
However, if Oversize paper is selected, printing is performed by taking the margins necessary for printer opera-
tions outside of the region of the original to give the result as shown in Figure (c).
The A4 size print as shown in Figure (b) can then be obtained by trimming the margins from the periphery after
printing.
•
When printing on Oversize paper, load paper larger than the page size—a size that includes the margin required by the
printer.
Important
•
Sheets: Load paper that is at least 6 mm (0.24 in) wider and 26 mm (1 in) higher than the page size
•
Rolls: Load paper that is at least 6 mm (0.24 in) wider and 6 mm (0.24 in) higher than the page size
•
Paper larger than the maximum size supported by the printer cannot be used as paper for oversized printing. (See
"Paper Sizes.")
Note
•
Oversized printing (selecting Oversize in Page Size) is only available in Windows.

To perform oversized printing on a Macintosh computer, you must specify a non-standard page size and print on it.

To specify a non-standard paper size in oversized printing, register the paper size as a Custom Paper Size. Oversized
printing is not available with Custom Size. (See "Printing on Non-Standard Paper Sizes.")
