Print Document On: is checked, the formatted size is Letter, the target size is set to
Executive, and the Scale to Fit option is checked, the edit box will indicate 85 percent of
Normal Size. If Scale to Fit is not selected, this value will return to 100.
If there is any change to the scale, the page preview will also change; increasing or
decreasing from the top left corner of the preview.
The slider bar controls the scale directly. The value in the edit box changes as the scroll
bar indicator is dragged, and the preview image updates to the new image scale. Each
click on the scroll bar arrows will increment or decrement the scale by 1 percent. Each
click on the page up/down region of the scroll bar will affect the scale by 10 percent.
You cannot get an exact value by dragging the scroll bar indicator at the default Windows
resolution; use the scroll bar indicator to approximate the desired value, then use the
scroll bar arrows to refine it.
The following settings will disable % of Normal Size:
• Print Document On: is selected.
• Pages per Sheet is not 1.
• Booklet Printing is on.
• A “scaled from large sizes” paper size is selected on the Paper tab.
Watermarks
The Watermarks feature allows you to choose a watermark, create your own custom
watermarks (text only), or edit an existing watermark. The following watermarks are
preset in the driver:
• Confidential
• Draft
• SAMPLE
The drop-down list contains the name of watermarks that are currently available on the
system (sorted alphabetically), plus the string “none,” which represents no watermark at
all and is the default setting. Any other watermark selected from this list is displayed in
the preview image.
Watermarks are applied to logical pages. So, for example, when Page per Sheet is set to
4 and First Page Only is turned off, there are four watermarks on the physical page (one
on each logical page).
First Page Only
When First Page Only is checked, the watermark is printed only on the first page of the
document. When not checked, the watermark will appear on every page of the document.
First Page Only is not checked by default.
The First Page Only checkbox is disabled only when the watermark list is set to "none."
Edit …
Selecting the Edit button will display the Watermark Details dialog box shown in Figure
17.
