NOTE: Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different paper sizes within a single document. For information about paper sizes, see Engineering Details on page 247. NOTE: Several paper sizes are listed in the paper size drop-down menu that are physically too large for the product, such as 16k. These sizes are included for scaling purposes– the product scales down the printed output from a larger original size used by a software program.
Size The Width: and Length: values can be changed by typing numeric strings into the edit boxes. Any entry that is too large is rounded down to the maximum valid entry, while any entry that is too small is rounded up to the minimum valid entry. If units are in millimeters, the custom paper-size range minimum is the limit rounded up to the nearest whole millimeter. The custom paper-size range maximum is the limit rounded down to the nearest whole millimeter.

When you move the mouse over the document preview image, the mouse cursor changes from an arrow to a gloved hand. You can toggle between portrait and landscape page orientation by clicking the image. Watermarks Use the Watermarks feature to select a watermark, create a new watermark (text only), or edit an existing watermark.
Watermark Details Click Edit, and the Watermark Details dialog box appears. Figure 4-8 Watermark Details dialog box The dialog box shows a preview image and provides options for creating a new watermark and controlling the message angle and font attributes. Click OK to accept all of the changes that are made in the Watermark Details dialog box. However, clicking Cancel does not cancel all of the changes.
Watermark Message The Watermark Message is also the name that identifies the watermark in the Current Watermarks list, except when more than one watermark has the same message. For example, you can have several different watermarks with the message DRAFT, each with a different typeface or font size. When this occurs, the string is appended with a space, a pound sign, and a number (for example, Draft #2).
◦ Very dark ◦ Darkest These values represent the intensity of the gray that is used. Light produces a lightly saturated gray watermark, Lightest produces the lightest shade of watermark, and Darkest produces a black watermark. ● Size Font sizes from 1 to 999 points are available from the Size menu. The default point size is language dependent.
Finishing tab features NOTE: The Finishing tab is on the Printing Preferences tab set. For information about how to gain access to these tabs, see Printing Preferences driver tabs on page 200.

However, on the Paper/Quality tab next to the paper type or size setting, a caution symbol shows if a selection is not supported by the printer.
To print a multiple-page document on a product that supports manual duplex only, follow these steps. 1. Select the Print on Both Sides (Manually) check box. 2. Click OK. The even-number pages of the document print. 3. When the Print on Both Sides Instructions dialog appears, insert the stack of paper (on which the even-number pages have been printed) and then press the Continue button, as indicated in the following figure.
Figure 4-11 Print on Both Sides Instructions dialog box When you have completed the steps that appear in the dialog box, the second half of the print job prints on the back side of the stack of paper. The driver does not require the program to specifically support odd- and even-page printing, because the driver coordinates this function. Print on both side automatically (P1600 series products) For paper types that are supported for automatic duplexing, follow these steps to print a multiple-page document.
NOTE: Transparency, Labels, Envelope, and Vellum paper types cannot be duplexed with P1600 series products, either automatically or manually. Selecting any of these paper types makes the Print on both sides option unavailable on the Finishing tab. Flip pages up Use the Flip pages up check box to specify the duplex-binding option. By default, the Flip pages up check box is not available. It is available only when Print on both sides is selected.
Pages per sheet Use the Pages per sheet: option to select the number of pages that you want to print on a single sheet of paper. If you choose to print more than one page per sheet, the pages appear smaller and are arranged on the sheet in the order that they would otherwise be printed.
