To Load a Sheet
You can load a sheet in either portrait or landscape orientation. Unless using
the
Rotate option (see page 4-8), load the sheet in the same orientation as you
have specified in your software. If printing a PostScript file, always load the
sheet with the short edge first, even if your drawing is landscape.
or
Portrait
(short edge first)
– always use for
PostScript files
Landscape

Which way up? As you load the sheet, it is the under side on which the printer will print. With
most media types, the two sides are different and so it is important to load the sheet
correctly. Refer to the table below.
