ter from printing beyond the paper edge. This is useful to prevent the
printer from printing on the platen, for example, because of an incor-
rect driver setting.

data located beyond the right-hand and left-hand paper edge. These
print data are lost.
When you select APW=Off, the printer does not prevent undesirable
printing on the platen.
The printer determines the paper width by means of an optical sen-
sor in the print head module. The print head carriage moves once
across the maximum possible printable area of the paper and stores
the width measured in this process. The measuring process varies,
depending on the paper source selected.
The measurement is made
after power-on and before the first print job;
after paper end and before the subsequent print job; after
changing the paper source (e.g. from Tractor 1 to Tractor 2).
