Printing Problems?
Some suggestions if
you're having trouble getting the tape measure to print properly:
-
Check your margins. The top, bottom, left and right margins each can be
set to no more than 0.25 inches.
-
Check your printer settings. If you have options like Shrink to Fit or Fit
to Page enabled, your inches may be something less than the real
article. Make sure all shrinkage and magnification options are turned
off, and the printer prints the page as it receives it, without
re-sizing.
The tape measure prints
best on a monochromatic laser printer with a resolution between 300 and 1200
dpi, inclusive. |
