GCC Printers Elite 12ppm - Manual (Page 54)

4-4
Edge-to-edge printing
The Elite 12ppm will print edge-to-edge on all supported paper sizes except Letter Small
and A4 Small. However, print quality is not guaranteed within 4mm of each edge.
Orientation
Use this option to change the position of the image on the page. If you choose vertical, or
Portrait, this prints the image upright on the page. If you choose horizontal, or Landscape,
this prints the image sideways on the page. The default is Portrait.
Note: If you create a document and specify in the application’s page setup that it should be
vertical, then if you choose Landscape in this dialog box the image will be cut off at the
bottom.
Copies
If you want to print more than one copy, enter the figure here. The maximum number of
copies is 999.
Options
To make further changes, click on the Options button. You’ll see the Setup Options dialog
box.
• Print to ...
If you choose Print To Encapsulated PostScript File, the document is not printed but
is saved in the location you specify as an (EPS) file. You may need to do this if you
send files to a service bureau or want to make a page into a graphics file.
• Scaling % ...
If you change the Scaling figure from the default 100 percent, the image is reduced or
enlarged on a page. If you select 50 percent, the image prints at half size; if you select
200 percent, the image prints at double size.
Note: We recommend that you use the application’s Scaling option and leave the
figure in the Print Options dialog box at 100 percent, unless an application does not
support scaling. If you set both this dialog box and the application’s Print dialog box
to scaling percentages other than 100 percent, you’ll get unpredictable results.
• Margins ...
If you choose Default Margins, certain applications will be limited to placing page
elements (i.e., text and graphics) within the page’s margins. This is only important if
you are using Letter Small or A4 Small paper sizes, since the other sizes are all edge-to-
edge and thus have no margins. Letter Small and A4 Small have margins of .35 inches
(9 mm) all around.
