The page
Physical page
The physical page refers to the size of the paper or envelope currently in use: A4, Letter, B5, JIS B5, Legal and
Executive are the permitted paper sizes: Monarch, COM-10, International DL and International C5 are the
allowable envelope sizes.
Printable area
The printable area is a rectangular area of the physical page on which the printer can print. Its edges are 1/6" in
from the edges of the physical page.
Logical page
The logical page is the area of the physical page where the cursor can be positioned. (Although the printer does
not really have a cursor, we refer to the position on the page from which the printing of a character or graphic
starts as the cursor position). You can alter the size of the logical page using the left offset registration and top
offset registration commands. The logical page is also called the PCL (printer control language) addressable area.
Text area
The text area is the area of the physical page on which text can be printed, and is determined by the left, right and
top margin settings, the text length and whether the perforation skip facility is on or off. All these settings can be
made either from the printer’s control panel (see the User Guide) or using PCL commands.
HP-GL/2 graphics window
The HP-GL/2 graphics window is the area of the physical page on which images can be printed using HP-GL/2
commands. This is described in the HP-GL/2 section of this manual. The default graphics window is bound by the
left and right edges of the logical page and horizontal boundaries half an inch below the top and above the bottom
of the logical page.
