The model prints up to A4 size (210 x 297 mm). Actual printable area may be slightly smaller due to mechanical margins, so check the printer settings or documentation for the exact maximum printable dimensions.

When not in use, store printheads and ink in accordance with supplier recommendations to prevent clogging.
