Printing On 11" X 17" And A3 Size Paper - Black Box PC124C Installation Manual

LASER CARDS FOR HP 4000 TWINAX AND COAX PRINTERS
11" x 17" Paper 11 x 17 in. (279.4 x 431.8 mm)
A3 Paper
If you choose any other paper dimensions in the word-processing program, the
interface ignores it and uses the previous paper-size choice.
You can also choose a paper-size override through a host download command,
or front panel selection as described in Chapter 5, Configuration—Twinax. The
"Any Paper Size" selection uses the paper installed in the tray, regardless of size.
The "A4 Size" selection uses A4 paper only.
With A4 paper size selected, 10 CPI fonts will print as 10.3 CPI. This allows 80
columns to be printed in portrait on A4 paper.
The following describes how to select legal-size paper in DisplayWrite/36 or
AS/400 Office.
1. Choose legal-size paper on the host and send the print job.
2. The printer's operator panel displays "Load Paper, Tray #, Legal." Install the
legal-size paper tray in the printer, and the printer will start printing.
The System/38 only sends margins and other format specifications to a printer
when they are different from the previous document or when the printer has been
turned off. To choose a different size paper, you must:
1. Select a paper size in the program.
2. Install the correct paper size in the printer.
3. Power off the printer for about five seconds, then power it back on again.
4. Release the job for printing at the printer's controlling workstation.
The line format screens in DisplayWrite/36 (Command 20) also permit you to
select "Justify," which aligns the right margin. For best results in using justification,
change the zone width to 1 (instead of 6). Right justification is only supported for
fixed-pitch fonts.

Some printers allow printing on 11" x 17" and A3 size paper. The Laser Card
automatically recognizes these larger paper sizes. However, at times it might be
advantageous to force the printer to print on 11 x 17 inch or A3 size paper, even
