Controlling the Page Format
Adjusting the Margins (Roll Media Only)
Adjusting the Margins (Roll Media Only)
Besides nesting and setting the page size, you can also change the margin settings
and expand the plotting area of the page, therefore reducing the amount of media
waste. The two side margins are 5.0 mm. The automatic setting of the plotter's
margins is 17 mm on the leading and trailing edges of the media. By reducing the
margins to 10 mm on the leading and trailing edges of the media, you can use
14 mm more plotting area along that axis. The adjustment is available in the front
panel.
