Advanced Topics Setting Up Edge-to-Edge Printing Setting Up Edge-to-Edge Printing The D640 printer ordinarily enforces a 1/6" unprintable area around the edge of any page. This is the factory default and produces the best looking output. There may be some cases where you don't want this border. The D640 supports edge-to-edge printing, which allows you to extend printing to the edge of the physical page. Note The print quality is not consistent within 1/6" of any edge. This is especially true for the trailing edge of the second side in duplex printing. For this reason, Hewlett-Packard cannot guarantee print quality within this 1/6" area. Your Hewlett-Packard warranty and service contract does not cover service calls related to printing within this 1/6" area. The quality and squareness of the paper determine print quality when printing close to the physical paper edge. In general, you may experience degraded print quality within .25 inches of any paper edge. When printing in duplex you may need to compensate for shrinkage and curl that may occur when the first side is printed. Lighter weight and recycled papers tend to shrink more then heavier weight papers. If you define text to start printing at location 0,0 it will print outside the logical page. This may or may not be on the physical page. Figure 6-18 describes the physical and logical page formats. Figure 6-18 Physical and Logical Page formats Advanced Topics 6-23
