How Does Rotate Interact with Your Software?
For PostScript files
■ On sheet media, the front-panel
Rotate setting has no effect.
■ On roll media, use the front-panel
Rotate setting to save media, by printing
narrow pages in landscape orientation, that is, with the short edge parallel to the
media path. An example, when rotated by 90
° or 270°, the page size is enlarged
by 2 x (27–15) = 24 mm, i.e.,
[leading and trailing edges] - [side margins] = 24 mm
This prevents the larger margins resulting from the rotation from encroaching on
the image.
■ The rotate setting in your printer driver overrides the rotate setting in the front
panel.
