Set the Margin Area of the Roll Paper

When printing on roll paper, set the size of margins to add to the top and bottom of the print data.

Prioritize image size

This setting adds margins to the outside of the print data. Larger margins make the printout longer in the vertical direction and use more paper.

Prioritize paper size

This setting adds margins to the inside of the print data. Larger margins may cause part of the print data not to be printed.

Important

When using Prioritize paper size, Roll paper lead edge/end margin may result in part of the image being lost. Prepare your print data to match the printable area.
