  3. Select Page Options.

  4. From the Page Options dialog box, click the Page Scaling button.

The options are:

Scaling Options

No scaling

When you select No Scaling, InfoConnect prints the screen or host print job as it is received from the host.

Scale the page size specified by the host to fit on the Windows printer page

Automatically reduce or expand the page size specified by the host to fit the page size currently defined in the Page Setup dialog box.

Choose a host page size and scale it to fit on the Windows printer page

When selected, enables the Host page size list box.

If you can get better results scaling from a host page size that is different from the one specified by the host, you can select one from the Host page size list.

Host page size

Select the size that best matches the form printout defined on the host.

Use scaling factors for reduction or expansion

Reduce or enlarge the width and length of the host print job and print it on the page size currently defined in the Page Setup dialog box.

NOTE:

  • No scaling is performed if either Print to file or Bypass Windows print driver is selected in the Print Setup dialog box.

  • If the host does not explicitly set a particular page orientation, one may be implied by the host page size. If the host page is narrower than it is tall, portrait orientation is implied. If the host page is wider than it is tall, landscape orientation is implied. To make sure that the Windows printer orientation is used, from the Page Setup dialog box, select Override the orientation specified by the host.
