Images
If you specify in your software a page size that is larger
than the paper size loaded in the printer, the printer will
still print what it can, but may clip your image. If you are
using the Jet Browser the preview will tell you that the
image is clipped.
Page Size and Nesting
Roll Paper Only
Nesting means placing two or more pages side-by-side
on a roll to save paper. There are certain cases when
your prints can not be nested. For a complete
explanation of nesting, see
Nesting Pages .
If you have nesting switched on, the printer will use the
page size to determine which pages are nested and
whether the pages can be automatically rotated when
nesting. See
Automatic Rotation only with HP-GL/2
Files , for information about which pages can be
automatically rotated.
