Prerequisites for Overspray

Since the scaling can distort the image, do not use Overspray for targets that have barcodes or text because
this setting could render them unreadable. If the image is a photograph or other graphical image, the scaling
may not be noticeable or objectionable. However, be sure to make test runs and check the effect of
choosing Overspray.

For example, overspray for a 4" x 8" label would actually be:

4" (800 dpi) + 21 dots = 3221 dots x 8" (800 dpi) + 21 dots = 6421 dots

Overspray Example: Measurements and Relationships

For barcodes and text, use Oversize instead Overspray. The required preparation for Oversize is
explained below.

OVERSIZE SETTINGS

The Oversize checkbox is in the Custom Sizes dialog box, located in Printing Preferences under the
General Tab.

Oversize Checkbox on the Custom Media Size Dialog Box

• Select the Oversize checkbox.
• Enter the measurements of the physical media in the Width and Height fields, selecting the units

(inches or millimeters).
