HP Designjet 4520 Printer series - Manual (Page 72)

Rotate an image
By default, images are printed with their shorter sides parallel to the leading edge of the paper, like this:
You may wish to rotate your images by 90 degrees in order to save paper, like this:
You can do this in the following ways:
● Using the HP-GL/2 and HP RTL printer driver for Windows: select the Finishing tab, then Rotate
by 90 degrees.
● Using the PostScript printer driver for Windows: select the Features tab, then Rotate by 90
degrees.
● Using a Mac OS printer driver: select the Finishing panel, then Rotate by 90 Degrees.
● Using the Embedded Web Server: select the Submit Job page, then Rotate.
● Using the front panel: select the icon, then Default printing options > Paper options >
Rotate.
NOTE: If rotation is set with the printer driver or with the Embedded Web Server, it overrides the setting
in the front panel.
NOTE: When you rotate a job, the page length may be increased to avoid clipping, because the top
and bottom margins are usually larger than the side margins.
CAUTION: With either rolls or sheets, if you rotate an image to landscape whose original orientation
was portrait, the paper may not be wide enough for the image. For example, rotating a portrait D/A1-
size image on D/A1-size paper by 90 degrees will probably exceed the width of the paper. If you are
using the Embedded Web Server, the preview screen will confirm this with a warning triangle. If you are
using the HP Designjet 4520 Printer series, the job will be put “on hold for paper”.
