Type a name for the custom size and click Save. Then specify the paper dimensions and click OK to save your custom paper size. NOTE: The custom paper size you define is not available for selection in the list of custom sizes until you have exited and opened the Printing Preferences/Properties again. Then, you can select More from the Document sizedrop-down menu and find the custom paper size in the list. ● On the Start menu, select Printers and Faxes, and then from the File menu select Server Properties. On the Forms tab, click the Create a new form check box, specify the name and dimensions of the new form, and then click Save Form. ● In Mac OS X V10.4, select Paper Size > Manage Custom Sizes in the Page Setup dialog box. ● In Mac OS X V10.2 or V10.3, select Settings > Custom Paper Size in the Page Setup dialog box.

For information about the exact sizes (in millimeters) of the available margin settings, see Table 17-4 Margins on page 190. Depending on the method that you use to adjust the margins, at least some of the following layout options are available. ● Standard. Your image is printed on a page of the size that you have selected, with a narrow margin between the edges of the image and the edges of the paper. The image should be small enough to fit between the margins. ● Oversize. Your image is printed on a page slightly larger than the size that you have selected. If you cut off the margins, the remaining page is the size you selected, with no margins between your image and the edges of the paper. ● Clip Contents By Margins. Use this setting when the contents have white borders and a size equal to that of the paper that you have selected in the driver. The printer uses the white border for its margins and you get a page size that is equal to what was selected in the driver. See the Usage and Preview sections of the Paper/Quality tab for tips about deciding which margins and layout option best suit your needs. NOTE: If margins are set in the printer driver or through the Embedded Web Server, they override the margins that are set on the front panel. 82 Chapter 6 Print options
