Introduction
This chapter lists the media sizes and imageable areas supported by
the QMS 4060 Print System, and then provides information on select-
ing and storing media.
Media Sizes and Imageable
Areas
Your printer supports media in a number of sizes. Each media size
has a certain imageable area, the maximum area on which the printer
can print. This area is subject to both hardware limits (the physical
media size and the margins required by the printer) and software con-
straints (the amount of memory available for the full-page frame
buffer).
» Note: Ensure that the media size matches the tray size (for example,
letter/A4 media must be loaded only when the tray is set to letter/A4
size). Since the media tray sends a media size signal to the printer
controller, using a wrong size media will cause your image to be
positioned incorrectly on the page or clipped and can result in paper
jams.
Imageable Area
The imageable area is the area on which the printer is guaranteed to
print clearly and without distortion. This area is subject to both hard-
ware limits (the physical media size and the margins required by the
printer) and software constraints (the amount of memory available for
the full-page frame buffer).
