Specifying a Paper Size

Solution

    This section describes how to print a document on your computer by using the printer driver.
    NOTE
    • Before printing, specify the paper size and type for the paper loaded in the paper source. For details on the procedures for loading paper, see the "e-Manual" (HTML manual) in the DVD-ROM supplied with the printer.

    1. Open a document in an application and display the print dialog box.
    • How to display the print dialog box differs for each application. For more information, see the instruction manual for the application you are using.

    2. Select your printer, and click [Preferences] or [Properties].
    • The screen that is displayed differs depending on the application you are using.

    3. Specify the paper size.

    (a) [Page Size]
    Select the size of a document made in the application.
    (b) [Output Size]
    Select the size of paper on which the document will be actually printed. If the selected size differs from the one specified in [Page Size], the document is printed enlarged/reduced automatically according to the size specified in [Output Size].
