3-28 Loading Rigid Media
13. Press the ! key to continue.
The control panel displays a screen that shows the following
information:
◆ Media size
◆ Print area
◆ Right & left margins — if you enter 0 (zero), you can also
specify an amount of overprint (printing past the edge
of the media). This enables you to achieve an edge-to-
edge printing effect without an unprinted border, espe-
cially if the media is skewed or not a perfect rectangle.
Protect the platen with tape or a strip of media to catch
the overprinted ink.
◆ Leading margin
◆ Trailing margin — 6.50 inches (165 mm) minimum to
allow the pinch rollers to feed the media. If you set the
Trailing Margin to 0 and want to print to the trailing
edge, you must attach a trailer of the same media to the
trailing edge so the pinch rollers can feed the media all
the way past the print zone.
14. To change the margin settings, press the Margin Settings
key; otherwise, press Proceed.
The printer moves the media to the proper position for
printing.
