Printing Area
To ensure the best print quality, the printer allows a margin along each edge of media. The actual printable area will be the area inside these margins.
Recommended printing area

Printable area 
: The area where it is possible to print. However, printing in this area can affect the print quality or the paper feed precision.
Note
