Paper

Setting Description
Size Select the size of the paper or envelope you want to use.
Source Choose the tray where the paper you want to use is located in the printer. Different printer models support different paper sources.

Orientation

Choose how the document is positioned on the page. The Page Preview at the top of the dialog box shows an example of the currently selected orientation.

Margins (inches)

Use the settings in this group box to set the printing area for the page. Reflection will not print outside the boundaries you specify. The Page Preview at the top of the dialog box shows an example of the currently selected margins.

Setting Description
Override the orientation specified by the host Select to make sure that your selected orientation is used.
In terminal sessions, page orientation is not set explicitly by the host but may be implied by the host page size. For example, by default the host page size is defined by the number of columns and lines on the terminal display. If the display is narrower than it is long, portrait orientation is implied. If the display is wider than it is long, landscape orientation is implied.
In printer sessions, the host may explicitly set a particular orientation in the data stream, or an orientation may be implied by the host page size, as described above for terminal sessions.
Page Options Open the Page Options dialog box, from which you can set the font to use for printed output, and specify the number of rows and columns to appear on the page.
