Introduction
This chapter lists the media sizes and imageable areas supported by
the QMS 2060 Print System, and then provides information on select-
ing and storing media.
Media Sizes and Imageable
Areas
Your printer supports media in a number of sizes. Each media size
has a certain imageable area, the maximum area on which the printer
can print clearly and without distortion. This area is subject to both
hardware limits (the physical media size and the margins required by
the printer) and software constraints (the amount of memory available
for the full-page frame buffer).
» Note: Ensure that the media size matches the cassette size (for
example, letter/A4 media must be loaded only when the cassette is
set to letter/A4 size). Since the media cassette sends a media size
signal to the printer controller, using a wrong size media could cause
a media jam, incorrect positioning of the image, or a clipped image.
Also, see chapter 3, “Advanced Printing Features,” in the Operation
manual for information on the amount of memory needed to print on
each media size.
The following table lists the dimension, imageable area, and feed
edge (the edge of the media drawn into the printer first), and input
source for each media size.
