Poor print quality at
left, right, or bottom
edge of page
Like other printers, your printer cannot print in the
extreme left, right, or bottom edges of a page. To
avoid poor print quality at the edges of the page,
we recommend using these minimum margin
settings:
Left and Right Margins
Left and right margin settings must be at least 6.35
mm (0.25 in.) each for all paper sizes except A4.
For A4 size paper, left and right margin settings
must be at least 3.37 mm (0.133 in.) each.
Top and Bottom Margins
The top margin must be set to at least 1.7 mm
(0.067 in.).
The bottom margin setting for all paper sizes must
be 12.7 mm (0.5 in.) for monochrome printing and
19.5 mm (0.75 in.) for color printing.
