Media Size Option Information

When a media size is specified by the user, the controller will assess which
rolls are available in the printer that can produce the desired paper size, and
choose the roll which will print the fastest (the widest roll). The image will be
rotated, when ROTATION is set to “AUTO”, as necessary in order to use the
least amount of media. Note that this rotation is different than auto-rotation.
In auto-rotation, the image is rotated to align the longest edge of the image
with the longest edge of the desired page to minimize clipping and maximize
the scaling ratio possible if autoscaling is also selected.

A “Media Mismatch” occurs when you request a media size and/or type that is
not currently available within the printer. The controller implements one of
three policies (Scaling, Query, Substitute) in handling media mismatches, as
explained in the “Bond, Film, or Vellum Mismatch Mode Option” setting
instructions in the “Printer Setup Defaults” section of this manual.
