Detect image size and Oversize

Operation is as described below when both Detect image size and Oversize are specified.

TM-355/TM-255/TM-5355/TM-5255

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Disable is selected for Oversize:

    Oversize is disabled in accordance with the command-specified image drawing range.

    Margins are added within the command-specified image drawing range.

    Depending on the layout, part of the image may be cut off.

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Enable is selected for Oversize:

    Oversize is enabled in accordance with the command-specified image drawing range.

    Margins are added outside the command-specified image drawing range.

    The image is not cut off by the margins.

    However, you will need to print on paper of a size that is greater than the size of the image drawing range specified by the HP-GL/2 data plus the top, bottom, left, and right margins.

  • When Detected size is selected for Detect image size and Disable is selected for Oversize:

    Oversize is disabled and processing of the detected minimum image range is performed.

    Margins are added within the detected minimum image range and parts of the image are cut off.

  • When Detected size is selected for Detect image size and Enable is selected for Oversize:

    Oversize is enabled and processing of the detected minimum image range is performed.

    Margins are added outside the detected minimum image range.

    The image is not cut off by the margins.

Detect image size AND Oversize EXAMPLE

The example below shows printing of data in which a figure is located in the upper left corner with margins below and to the right, on roll paper that is larger than the command-specified image drawing range (size normally specified by the application).

  1. Command-specified image drawing range (when OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size)
  2. Minimum image range detected (when Detected size is selected for Detect image size)

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Disable is selected for Oversize:

    C: Position of cut

    Cut at length of command-specified image drawing range.

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Enable is selected for Oversize:

    D: Position of cut

    Cut at length of upper and lower margins added to length of command-specified image drawing range.

  • When Detected size is selected for Detect image size and Disable is selected for Oversize:

    E: Position of cut

    Cut at length of minimum image range detected.

  • When Detected size is selected for Detect image size and Enable is selected for Oversize:

    F: Position of cut

    Cut at length of upper and lower margins added to length of minimum image range detected.

TM-350/TM-340/TM-250/TM-240/TM-5350/TM-5340/TM-5250/TM-5240

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Disable is selected for Oversize:

    First, determine the image drawing range based on the Detect image size setting, and then perform the processing when Disable is selected for Oversize.

    Since margins are added inside the image drawing range, images may be chipped depending on the layout.

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Enable is selected for Oversize:

    First, determine the image drawing range based on the Detect image size setting, and then perform the processing when Enable is selected for Oversize.

    Since margins are added outside the image drawing range, images will not be chipped due to the margins.

    However, you will need to print on paper that is larger than the size of the image drawing range determined based on Detect image size setting, plus the top, bottom, left and right margins.

Note

  • Not all HP-GL/2 data can be supported.

Detect image size AND Oversize EXAMPLE

The example below shows printing of data in which a figure is located in the upper left corner with margins below and to the right, on roll paper that is larger than the command-specified image drawing range (size normally specified by the application).

A: The image drawing range determined based on the Detect image size setting

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Disable is selected for Oversize:

    Since margins are added inside the image drawing range, images may be chipped depending on the layout.

    B: Position of cut

    The paper is cut with the length of the image drawing range determined based on the Detect image size setting.

  • When OFF or Command priority is selected for Detect image size and Enable is selected for Oversize:

    Since margins are added outside the image drawing range, images will not be chipped due to the margins.

    C: Position of cut

    The paper is cut with the length obtained by adding the upper and lower margins to the length of the image drawing range determined based on the Detect image size setting.
