Invoices, statements, and historical reports accessed through the Cal Hono website,
can print in a precise duplication of their original format and content.
To accurately reproduce these documents, your printer settings should be configured
to maximize the print area on each 8½ X 11 inch page.
The procedure outlined below, shows you how to set the printing preferences that will
properly configure your printer.
Use Your Browser's 'Page Setup' to Control Printing
Depending upon the Internet browser that you are using, printing preferences will be set through a 'page set-up' control (as described here) or through some other means.
If you are using the latest release of Microsoft® Internet Explorer® (version 7) or an earlier release (such as versions numbered 6.x or older), you can access the Page Set-up control panel by clicking on the menu elements depicted below:
The Internet Explorer® Page Set-up control panel contains options to set paper size and orientation as well as printer margins.
If you are not using Microsoft® Internet Explorer®, you should determine if your browser has a similar control panel; and if so, then set your parameters
corresponding to the values described below.
For best printing results (for all reports and documents accessed through the Cal Hono website), set the following options to these values:
Printer — Click this button to select the printer used for your browser's output;
Paper - Size — All reports and documents print on standard letter sized (8½ X 11 inch) paper;
Paper - Source — Set this option to the appropriate paper source for your specific printer;
Header — Leave this option blank;
Footer — Leave this option blank;
Orientation — Set this option to Portrait;
Margins — Set all options (Left, Right, Top, Bottom) to 0;
When all option values have been set, click the 'OK' button. The browser will validate the settings entered for the printer selected; and, will automatically reset the margin values to the absolute minimum values acceptable to your printer. (This should accommodate all reports and documents accessed from Cal Hono.)

A note about setting margins... Printer margins are interpreted by many people as the desired indent within a printed document — such as a word processing document. While setting printer margins will accomplish this, the margin setting was intended to define a printer's physically printable margin on the physical media (i.e., page). It is therefore, advisable to use indentation or document-level margin settings (within the word processing application) rather than modifying the printer's physical setup when processing a document, so that the printer will always be capable of properly aligning printed matter from other sources (where a margin of minimum size is required). |
