As long as the calibration sheet does not expect to be printed Borderless,
(the printer does not support Borderless),
and
If the margins on the calibration sheet allow for a 1/2 margin along the bottom edge,
(the printer requires a larger margin along the one edge),
| Print Margin Bottom (A4) | 12.7 mm |
| Print Margin Left (A4) | 3 mm |
| Print Margin Right (A4) | 3 mm |
| Print Margin Top (A4) | 3 mm |
then
It might be possible to use this printer to print a calibration sheet at actual size.
Examples /// Ideas
What you use depends on the file typeof the calibration document.
That said...
Not at all sure a Web browser could print the expected output - margins are added as the browser intends and not necessarily as wanted / needed in the content being printed.
For example,
If the calibration file is a PDFfile
Consider / Try
Print the file using Adobe Reader DC
Select Page Size = Actual size
Example - Adobe Reader DC - Simple PDF file print
What else?
If the file type is an Image / .jpg file,
Consider / Try
HP Smart Windows > Print Photos
To work, the shape of the item to be printed must exactly match the shape of the paper.
Margins will be set automatically to accommodate the larger of the required margins.
In the case of this printer, 1/2 inch margins on all sides.
If the shape of the item does not match the shape of the paper, the content will change size when either "crop" or "fit" is selected.
Not sure?
Switch between the Cropand Fitoptions to see how the projected content changes size / shape.
