 How to Access
|
The Page Setup dialog box allows you to specify page margins for the selected printer. All settings are specified in inches.
- Click on the Portrait tab to specify margins and printer offset adjustments when printing with an orientation of Portrait. Settings on the Portrait tab are also used for checks and 1099 forms.
- Click on the Landscape tab to specify margins and printer offset adjustments when printing with an orientation of Landscape.
| Margins |
You can specify a Left, Right, Top, and Bottom margin for pages of reports and Tabs3 Billing statements. Margins can be a maximum of 9.999 inches. Negative values are not allowed. The minimum margin is determined by the selected printer. (Note: You must have more than 2 inches of horizontal printing area and more than a half inch of vertical printing area.) Margins do not apply when printing Tabs3 Billing envelopes. If including a letterhead bitmap on Tabs3 Billing statements (as specified in the Statement Setup window), the Top and Bottom margins do not apply to the bitmap. The Left and Right margins may apply depending on whether the Bitmap Alignment specified is based on the margins or page width. Margins also apply when printing checks (Trust and AP), 1099 Forms (Trust and AP), and labels (Tabs3 Billing and AP). However, when printing labels using the Avery Laser or Deluxe Laser option (i.e., two-across), you should use the minimum margins for your selected printer. If you need to make adjustments, use the Printer Offset Adjustment to make the adjustment instead of the Margins because the Printer Offset Adjustment adjusts the entire printed page. You may want to set up a special Windows printer for printing laser labels. Note: The default values for the margin fields are based on the selected printer driver’s default margins. However, if the printer driver has a default margin of 0 inches, the Left, Right, and Top values will default to 0.25 inches, and the Bottom value will default to 0.50 inches. |
Printer Offset Adjustment
You can specify a Left and Top offset adjustment.
This information is used for fine-tuning the exact starting position when printing labels (Tabs3 Billing and
AP), checks (Trust and AP), 1099 forms (Trust and AP) and any other forms. These adjustments can be a minimum
of -9.999 inches and a maximum of 99.999 inches and affect all printed output. These adjustments are shown in the Preview
window for all output except 1099 forms.
Note: You may want to define special Windows printers specifically for printing labels and specific reports.
