7.1.2.2 Using Paper Size that is 187.96 mm (7.4") or more and less than 215.9 mm (8.5") in width Custom Size is variable in width in the range of 187.96 mm (7.4") - 215.9 mm (8.5"), but when the designated width is more than 187.96 mm (7.4"), you must take the following points into consideration when creating print data. The printer’s physical printable area is 160.02 mm (6.3").
7.2 About the Validation Printing Area This section describes the information for the Validation printing area, and it includes notes for using Validation. 1 In Validation mode, you can use the same paper as in Slip mode, but the printing area is not the same as that of Slip mode. 2 Only 1-line printing is supported. When you need to print multiple lines, use the Slip Driver. 3 Use device fonts in the case of Character printing. However, double-high characters are not supported.
6 The following shows examples of print data created in Windows applications in each Paper source (L_Alignment/Center/ R_Alignment). Data in application Print result O425_116.
7 Basically, the concept of setting the printing area in the horizontal direction and the margins for Custom paper is the same as for Slip, except for the following. Custom Size is variable in width in the range of 162.56 mm (6.4") - 215.9 mm (8.5"). Validation’s paper setting position is different from that of Slip, and the minimum Right Margin value is 2.54 mm (0.1"). Set paper size and margins within the specified range for your use. Also, refer to 7.1 Setting Slip Paper in the Paper Tray.
7.3 Setting Tractor Paper in the Tractor Unit This section describes how to set Tractor Paper in the Tractor Unit. The maximum printable width per line with Tractor paper is 160.02 mm (6.3"). Push the Tractor Paper Guide against the Right Tractor Unit’s right edge when using this print driver. (Slide the Paper Guide toward the left as needed to change the printing area on the paper.
7.5 Special functions of the Windows 95/98 Version Printer Driver The following dialog shows the Paper tab of the Windows 95/98 printer driver. The Unprintable Area function does not exist in the driver property setting for the NT4 environment. Here is some supplemental explanation. O425_118.jpg This setting configures the Unprintable Area of the currently-selected paper. Each margin value is the standard value of the Unprintable Area.
The application judges that the top 1 inch of “Top Margin 2 inches” is the printer’s mechanical Auto Loading position, therefore the application does not produce data for the actual data transfer. Thus, the application produces data while ignoring the data in the first 1 inch from the top of that data. Unless you set the printer Auto Loading to 1 inch, you cannot get the printing result you expect. This function is valid with printers that support Auto Loading.
