Page size
The Page size option applies only when using roll media, and is used to define the
way in which the plotter emulates a sheet of media when printing your plot. This
section explains how to make sure that the plotter prints your plot in the page size
you want.

Media Terminology
0023
Page size This is what you can specify in your software, where it may be called “Page Size”,
“Media Size”, “Paper Size” etc., and where the options include, for example, ISO
A3, ANSI Letter, Architectural E, Custom, etc. Alternatively, it can be set by the
plotter. By default, the plotted page size is set to the inked area (plus the margins).
In AutoCAD for DOS, however, the “User Size” is the plotting area.
Margins These are fixed for the HP DesignJet 330 and 350C. The values are 17 mm on the
leading and trailing edges and 5 mm on the sides.
Plotting area This is the chosen page size minus the margins. For a table showing the plotting
areas for standard media sizes, see page 10–7.
Inked area This is the smallest rectangle that contains all the content of the drawing, while
maintaining its relative dimensions.
Localization Note. .Very similar to Loquillo 750C UG p4–2.
