# FITTING THE PRINT IMAGE TO THE PAPER

## Overview

This function automatically enlarges or reduces the print image to match the size of the paper loaded in the machine.
This function is convenient when enlarging an A4 or letter size document to A3 or ledger size to make it easier to view, or when printing a document on paper that is different in size from the original document.
In a Macintosh environment, this function can be used only in Mac OS X 10.4.11, 10.5 to 10.5.8, 10.6 to 10.6.8 or 10.7 to 10.7.2.
When you are using the PCL6 or PCL5c printer driver, documents can be received so that they are printed to fit A0, A1, or A2 size paper. Select the size from "Paper Size" on the [Paper Select] tab.
