Values in Inches
If you want to enter values in inches in all modes which require a numeric entry, set
Inch Entry to ‘On’ in Common Settings (from the Additional Functions screen). (See
“Inch Entry,” on p. 4-28.) This enables you to enter values in inches when you press
[Inch] on a screen requiring a numeric entry or measurement.
The default entry mode for numeric values is inches, but you can change it to
millimeters by turning the Inch Entry mode ‘Off’.
The following example shows you how to enter 5 1/2" for the X (horizontal) value
when specifying an irregular paper size.
