Printing a multi-page timeline banner

When TimeMap is not in Banner mode, it prints duplicate information in the right and left margins of adjoining pages. This is intended to simplify the process of cutting and taping pages together to form a printed, multi-page timeline.

TimeMap provides a Banner mode for printers that support continuous feed (banner) paper. In Banner mode, TimeMap ignores the right and left margins on adjoining pages and does not print duplicate information.

Most printers (including virtually all laser printers) do not support banner printing.

 

There are two primary methods printers use to support banner printing. Some printers require you to create a user-defined paper size corresponding to the dimensions of the banner you want to print. Other printers have a banner mode you must enable in the printer Properties dialog box before printing. Consult your printer user’s guide to determine if and how it supports banner printing.

Determine if and how your printer supports banner paper. You have three options you can choose to print a timeline banner:

•If the printer requires a user-defined paper size for printing banners, proceed with the Printing a Banner with a User-Defined Paper Size option.
•If the printer supports a banner mode, proceed with the Printing in Banner Mode option.
•If the printer does not support banner printing, you can cut and tape the multi-page timeline together.
