Paper settings

•

Fit paper size

•

Enlarges or reduces the image for printing to fit to the paper loaded in the printer.

Note

• Data line widths are not enlarged or reduced.
• Margin widths are not enlarged or reduced. Because of this, paper size scaling and post-processing

image scaling may not be the same.

• Nesting cannot be performed while

Fit paper size

is selected.

• The maximum enlarge/reduce rate for this setting is calculated by (maximum width/1 inch x 100 %).

Therefore, the maximum rate is 2400 % for 24 inch model, 3600 % for 36 inch model, and 4400
% for 44 inch model. If the calculation result exceeds the maximum rate, the image is enlarged
according to the maximum rate for each model.

•

Same size (Initial setting)

•

Image is not enlarged/reduced.

•

Scaling

•

Enlarges or reduces the image to the specified scaling value for printing.

Scaling can be specified within a range of 25 % to 400 %.

Note

• Data line or margin widths are not enlarged or reduced.

ENLARGE/REDUCE Scaling SETTING EXAMPLE

The output object area is enlarged or reduced as specified by the

Scaling

setting. The origin is in the

upper-left corner.

For example, doubling the length and width of A4 size paper results in A2 size paper.

If there are margins of 3 mm, the A4 size output object area measures 291 mm x 204 mm.

Specify a value of 200% for the

Scaling

setting to produce a post-processing size of 582 mm x 408 mm.

(Note that ambient conditions may cause paper to expand and contract.)
