GW: How to Print Banners on Continuous Feed Paper (164068)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Greetings Workshop 2.0
- Microsoft Greetings Workshop
This article was previously published under Q164068 SUMMARY
To print banners on continuous feed paper without any blank space between
the pages, you must make an adjustment to the printer settings before
you start Greetings Workshop. This article describes how to do so.
Selecting Continuous Feed Paper
To print a banner using continuous feed paper, follow these steps:
- Quit Greetings Workshop if it is open.
- Click the Start button, point to Settings, and choose Printers.
- Click once on the icon for your printer to select it.
- Click on the File menu and choose Properties.
- Look for a setting allowing you to choose between Cut Sheet and Banner
(also called Fan Fold). The location of this setting will vary
depending on the model of printer.
- Click OK to this window.
- If necessary, make any required banner setting change on the printer
hardware.
- Launch Greetings Workshop and print the banner.
NOTE: This change will affect printing in all Windows programs. Remember to
change it back to cut-sheet when you are finished printing to continuous
feed paper. To change the setting back to cut-sheet, follow the steps
above, but select cut-sheet instead of banner in step 4.
MORE INFORMATION
Some printers are designed to use a custom page size for printing on banner
paper. An example would be setting the printer driver to 8.5" x 33" inch
paper to print a three page banner. Setting the paper size to something other than 8.5" x 11" may cause the printer to jam when printing from Greetings Workshop.
In order to print on banner paper from Greetings Workshop, the printer must
support banner paper. Greetings Workshop will not work with page sizes
other than 8.5" x 11."
