Create a rectangle sized to fit the desired paper dimensions (e.g. a 7” x 7” rectangle for  8.5” x 11” size paper ) and print it out at a scale of 1.0.  Measure the printed output and compare it to the model dimensions.

Enter the model dimensions and the printed output dimensions in the provided input fields.  The values can be in any units as long as the same units are used for both dimensions.

Be sure when you print the test sheets that your print scale *General_Print_Configuration is set to 1.0 as opposed to ”r;Auto.”
