Introduction
This chapter lists the media sizes and imageable areas supported by
the QMS 1660 Print System, and then provides information on select-
ing and storing media.
Media Sizes, Imageable
Areas, and Margins
Your printer supports media in a number of sizes.
▲
Caution:
The media size must match the cassette size. Since the
cassette sends a size signal to the printer controller, using the wrong
size media will cause your image to be positioned incorrectly on the
page or clipped. You may purchase additional cassettes from your
QMS vendor.
Imageable Area
Each media size has a certain imageable area, the maximum area on
which the printer can print. This area is subject to both hardware lim-
its (the physical media size and the margins required by the printer)
and software constraints (the amount of memory available for the full-
page frame buffer).
