Actual size Actual size is the default setting. It prints the document without changing the document size. Print document on Click the Print document on: option to format the document for one paper size and then print the document on a different paper size, with or without scaling the image to fit the new paper size. Print document on: control is disabled by either of the following conditions: ● The % of actual size: value is selected. ● The Pages per sheet: value (on the Finishing tab) is not 1. When Print document on: is selected, the drop-down menu shows the paper sizes on which you can print. The list contains all of the standard paper sizes that the selected paper source supports and any custom sizes that you have created. When Print document on: is selected, Scale to fit is automatically selected. Clear this check box if you do not want your document reduced or enlarged to fit on the selected paper. Scale to fit The Scale to fit option box specifies whether each formatted document page image is scaled to fit the target paper size. By default, Scale to fit is selected when Print document on: is selected. If the setting is turned off, then the document page images will not be scaled and are instead centered at full size on the target paper. If the document size is larger than the target paper size, then the document image is clipped. If it is smaller, then it is centered within the target paper. The following figure shows the effect that Scale to fit has on a document formatted for Legal-size paper but printed on Letter. Figure 4-12 Preview images - Legal on Letter; Scale to Fit off (left) and on (right) When the size for which the document is formatted (that is, the logical size) differs from the target size, the preview image uses a dashed gray line to show the boundaries of the logical page in relation to the target paper size. % of actual size The % of actual size: option provides a slider bar for scaling the percentage setting. The default setting is 100%. Actual size is defined as the paper size that is selected within the driver or the size that the driver receives from the software program (if the software program does not negotiate the paper size with the driver). The driver scales the page by the appropriate factor and sends it to the product. The limits of the range are from 25% to 400%, and any values outside the range are adjusted to those limits as soon as the focus is removed from the control (that is, when the Tab key is pressed or another control is selected).
