Cut to standard size and Auto rotation and Enlarge/Reduce (Fit to paper)

When Cut to standard size, Auto rotation, and Enlarge/Reduce (Fit to paper) are all specified, first the optimum standard size is determined based on the HP-GL/2 data and the roll paper loaded on the printer.

Next, Auto rotation and Enlarge/Reduce (Fit to paper) processes are performed in accordance with the resulting standard size.

SMALL IMAGE EXAMPLE

When A3 width roll paper is loaded, A4 landscape is chosen as the optimal standard size based on the roll paper width and image size.

Next, Auto rotation is performed in accordance with the A4 landscape. Finally, the image is enlarged and printed to match A4 size paper.

Print data (image drawing range)

  1. Virtual area for A4 size

Since the image fits on A4 size paper, A4 landscape is chosen as the standard size.

  • Image after auto rotation

  • Printed image after fit to paper

LARGE IMAGE EXAMPLE

When A3 width roll paper is loaded, A3 portrait is chosen as the optimal standard size based on the roll paper width and image size.

Next, Auto rotation is performed in accordance with the A3 portrait. Finally, the image is reduced and printed to match A3 size paper.

Print data (image drawing range)

  1. Virtual area for A3 size

Since the image does not fit on A3 size paper, A3 portrait is chosen as the maximum standard size.
