Printable Area Specifications

In the illustrations below, the gray area represents the printable area; the white arrow indicates the direction in which the paper is ejected. If the margin set in an application is larger than the following setting values, sections beyond the specified margins are not printed. For example, if 15 mm is selected for the left and right margins in the printer menus and the document fills the page, the 15 mm at the left and right sides of the page will not be printed.
Note: When printing borderless, quality may decline in the expanded printable area.

Roll paper



Note: Margins may change depending on the Top Margin setting that you select. If you select Save Roll Paper as the Roll Paper Option on the printer driver's Advanced tab, the top and bottom margins of the paper are set to 0 mm. The margins listed below are the standard settings. When printing with the left and right borderless setting, the left and right margins are set to 0 mm. When printing with the borderless on all sides setting, all margins are set to 0 mm.
1 Printable width: Varies by model (see the link below)
2 Left/right margin: 0.12 to 0.59 inches (3 to 15 mm)
3 Top margin: 0.12 to 0.59 inches (3 to 15 mm)*
4 Printable length: up to 298 feet (91 m)**

* For these paper types the default top and bottom margins are 0.8 inch (20 mm): Epson Premium Glossy Photo Paper (250), Epson Premium Semigloss Photo Paper (250), Epson Premium Luster Photo Paper (260), and Epson Premium Semimatte Photo Paper (250).

** The maximum printable length using the Epson driver on Windows is 298 feet (91 m). To print longer images, you need to use third-party banner printing software and select Roll Paper (Banner) as the Source setting in the printer driver.
Note: Actual maximum print length depends on print application, paper size, printer driver settings, and operating system. Even if the margins change, the printed size does not change.
Note: Printing is distorted when the trailing edge of the roll paper comes off the core. Make sure the trailing edge does not come inside the printing area.

Cut sheets



Note: When printing borderless, the left and right margins are set to 0. (Borderless printing is not available with poster board.)
