Margins
Margins can be set to Normal, Expanded, or Edge Band. The Expanded setting expands the print area and
decreases the margins. Any part of the image that extends into the margin will be clipped. When the Margins
option is set to Expanded, make sure that you align the media accurately using the guide on the right of the platen
so that the ink doesn't exceed the edge of the media.
Cartridge spitting helps to clear and prevent clogs. The cartridges spit in the service station before each print job
and periodically during each job. On certain prints, the jets are not completely cleared of residue during the spit.
On these occasions, the extra residue is deposited with the first drops of the print resulting in edge banding. To
reduce the incidence of edge banding, select Edge Band, which will print a vertical line in the margin on each
side of the print. When Edge Band is selected, margins are automatically set to Normal. The output print area
for Edge Band and Normal settings is the same.
Cut sheet maximum printing area
Normal: 0.59" (15 mm) margin on each of three sides. 1.57" (40 mm) margin on the fourth side for mono prints
and 1.96" (50 mm) margin on the fourth side for color prints.
