Paper Size (OpenPrint)
This parameter allows selection of available paper sizes. Available options include:
Custom. Sets a user-defined paper size.
Width. Defines the paper width. The range is 1" to 15" in 0.1 inch increments. The default is
13.6 inches.
Length. Defines the paper length. The default is 11 inches. Three length options are available:
Inches. Defines the length in inches. The range is 1" to 24" in 0.1 inch increments.
1/6 Inch Lines. Defines the length in 1/6 inch lines. The range is 6 to 144 lines.
1/8 Inch Lines. Defines the length in 1/8 inch lines. The range is 8 to 192 lines.
To set a custom length, use the appropriate menu that allows for selection of the exact paper length to
avoid loss of top-of-form (i.e., if using a 12" paper, select either the "Inches" menu set to 12" or the "1/6
Inch Lines" menu set to 72. However, if using a 11 2/3 inch paper length, the "1/6 Inch Lines" menu must
be used (set to 70) since that is exactly 11 2/3 inches. If the "Inches" menu is used, the closest values
would be 11.6 or 11.7 inches which are not exact.
The printer will indicate which of the three length menus was used by showing that submenu first when
entering the "Length" menu. The configuration printout will also show the length menu used.
See Table 5 for paper size options and actual sizes.
