What is the imageable (printable) area

Each media size has a specific imageable area, the maximum area on which
the printer can print clearly and without distortion.
This area is subject to both hardware limits
(the physical media size and the margins
required by the printer) and software con-
straints (the amount of memory available for
the full-page frame buffer). The imageable
(printable) area for all media sizes is the page
size minus 0.157" (4 mm) from all edges of the
media.
5 "
All media is fed in portrait (short edge
first) orientation, and all media is output
to the 250-sheet output tray on top of
the printer.
What is the difference between a nonprintable and
nonguaranteed area?
There is a 0.157 inch (4 mm) nonprintable border for all edges on all media
sizes and types. Only envelopes have a nonguaranteed area.

Print orientation is determined by your application.
* Varies with envelope type.

Page Margins

Margins are set through your application. Some applications allow you to set
custom page sizes and margins while others have only standard page sizes
and margins from which to choose. If you choose a standard format, you
may lose part of your image (due to imageable area constraints). If you can
custom-size your page, use those sizes given for the imageable area for
optimum results.
