When the Default is selected, the top margin becomes 20mm and the bottom margin becomes 15mm for the

When the Default is selected, the top margin of Premium Glossy Photo Paper (250) is 20 mm and the bottom
margin is 15 mm. The top and bottom margin of other paper is 15 mm.
Sets whether to detect the paper width or not.
Setting to OFF deactivates the sensor that detects the paper width when paper is loaded on the printer. This
allows the user to use paper whose width is out of the sensor’s detectable range. It means that the user can print
an image larger than the paper size. The user should know that doing so soils the platen and may cause a print
quality or any other trouble.
