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. This area is subject to both hardware limits (the physical
media size and the margins required by the printer) and software con-
straints (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 will cause
your image to be positioned incorrectly on the page or clipped. Also,
see chapter 3, “Advanced Printing Features,” of Operation for
information on the amount of memory needed to print each paper
size.

The imageable area is the area on which the printer is guaranteed to
print clearly and without distortion. This area is subject to both hard-
ware 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).
The following table lists the size, imageable area, and feed edge (the
edge of the media drawn into the printer first) of all supported media
as well as information about their input, output, and finishing options:
