Paper / Scaling
Paper Size
Select the output page size. Please note that the printer may have a roll installed that may be larger
than the selection.
This feature is very important in wide format printing from CAD applications and MS Excel. This is a
feature that is required in CAD applications where the image size may vary from one image to the next
such as: 36” x 60” for the first document then 24” x 80” for the next.
The Custom Size feature allows the users much simpler access for several capabilities:
x Choose any paper size “on-the-fly” without adding new paper sizes to the operating system
(Printers and FaxesÆServer PropertiesÆForms).
x Choose different and non-standard paper sizes for each and every document.
x Choose very long paper sizes.
It is not necessary to exactly match the document length to the output length; the users can
intentionally choose a longer length for the media size. For example, if the image is meant to fit on 36”
wide media, but the user isn’t sure about the length of the media required, the user can set a very long
length (up to 200 feet) and the “white” space (extra paper) at the end of the document will
automatically be removed. This prevents any waste of media without an image (using GL format)
Media Type
The printer may have more than one media type installed. These types
may include bond, vellum and film. This feature allows printing onto a
media type of your choice it the media has been installed. Custom Media
will also be read and available if installed in the printer. Custom media
types are configurable via PrintNET.
