The setting marked with an asterisk "" indicates the default for the setting.

Default may differ depending on the country.

"Paper Input 2: Regular (Portrait)", "Paper Input 2: Regular (Landscape)", and "Paper Input 2: Custom Size" appear on "24. Paper Input Location" only when the optional Paper Input Location 2 is attached.

The default setting for "86. Print Quality" is [Speed Priority] when you specify for Paper Type a paper type other than plain paper, inkjet plain, thin paper, or coated (CAD).

The way that the area near the paper edge is handled differs between GL and GL/2 modes.

In GL mode:
When a positive value is specified, the width of the margin is determined by subtracting the specified value from the point that is derived by shifting 10 mm inward from the position specified in "23. Printable Area (Hard Clip)".
When a negative value is specified, the width of the margin is determined by adding the specified value to the point that is derived by shifting 10 mm inward from the position specified in "23. Printable Area (Hard Clip)".
In GL/2 mode
When a positive value is specified, the width of the margin is determined by subtracting the specified value from the point that is derived by shifting 7 mm inward from the paper edge.
When a negative value is specified, the width of the margin is determined by adding the specified value from the point that is derived by shifting 7 mm inward from the paper edge.
1. Origin of drawing
2. Paper
3. Area used to calculate the reproduction ratio
4. Margin

In the case of the bottom left origin, the origin is located in the bottom left corner of the area specified in "23. Printable Area (Hard Clip)".

Note

The size used as the reference for "29. Auto Reduce/Enlarge" and "Auto 2 (L&S Edge) + Auto R/E Ratio: Paper Size Set." in "43. Method to Select Paper Input Automatically" is determined based on the settings for "39. Margin Adjustment for Auto Reduce/Enlarge" and "47. Method to Determine Original Size".
If the value calculated from the paper size determined by "47. Method to Determine Original Size" and the value specified in "39. Margin Adjustment for Auto Reduce/Enlarge" is less than 1 mm, it is rounded up to 1 mm in the calculation.
The maximum value of the reproduction ratio calculated from the paper size determined by "47. Method to Determine Original Size" and the setting in "39. Margin Adjustment for Auto Reduce/Enlarge" is as follows:
- When "Auto 2 (L&S Edge) + Auto R/E Ratio: Paper Size Set." is selected in "43. Method to Select Paper Input Automatically ": 100.0%
  - In other cases: 400.0% (the maximum value of "29. Auto Reduce/Enlarge")

Orig. Size Determined + Auto R/E Ratio: Correct Value
A paper input location is automatically selected from the available locations, including those loaded with custom-sized paper, according to the sent data size and reproduction ratio, and based on the setting in "47. Method to Determine Original Size".
Paper input locations with regular sized paper are given priority under automatic selection. A custom size is selected if there is no regular size suitable for the data size, or all available regular sizes are larger than the size calculated by adding the value selected on the submenu to the data size. If a custom size is selected, the paper input location loaded with paper which prints minimum margins is used.
If both regular sizes and custom-sized paper are loaded, the value specified on the submenu is used in cases such as when printing data that is slightly smaller (print data size is in the range of regular size -150 mm) than a regular size on a regular size paper. Paper of regular sizes will be selected if a larger submenu value is specified.
