If you are printing to a single sheet, you must ensure that the image can actually fit onto the sheet,
otherwise the image will be clipped.

Preview a print

Previewing a print on the screen allows you to check the layout of the print before printing, which may
help you to avoid wasting paper and ink on a bad print.

NOTE:

If you load sheet paper without a skew check, the printer does not measure the length of the

sheet, so the print preview will not be a reliable guide to the final printout.

Shortcuts
tab, Paper/Quality tab and Features tab. The preview is shown before printing;
you can check the print settings and the layout of the image, and then click Print to proceed
with printing or Cancel to cancel the job.
