How do I change the imageable area to fit themedia area when printing?

[Brian_M_Grimm@adobeforums.com]

I am having trouble with the imageable area and the media area when I print my documents. The imageable area is smaller than the media area and cuts off what I am trying to print. How do I fix this problem? I am using InDesign CS2. Thanks

Brian,

The imageable area, for a given media size, is a device specific property and not something controlled by an application like Indesign. In the case of a postscript device, this information is supplied to the application by the PPD (Postscript Printer Description) file. It is very common (though not universal) for the imageable area to be smaller than the media size. Check the documentation that came with your printer, or the manufacturer's web site.
