• The printer has the following hardware margins: The driver cannot override these margins. This means that, if for instance you select an A3/B page size, the printable area will be the A3/B size minus the margins. This information is included as "Margins" and it is passed to the application but it is the responsibility of the customer to fill them out when creating a custom page size as, if they are overwritten, you may face clipping problems without warning from the application. Note: Although most of applications check for possible clipping problems, not all applications do before sending the job to print. • The second point is that you notice there is paper size for regular and twosided (duplex) mode. The reason is because in duplex mode, the top and the bottom hardware margins are equal. 5.2 Changing the default settings in MAC When the Adobe PostScript driver appears, change the drop-down list "General" to "Printer Specific Options" tab.
