Different printers have different printable areas.
Most of them have a border round the edge of
the paper that they do not print onto.

This issue is especially noticeable for printers


printing onto different paper sizes. In the UK and
100
Europe the commonly used paper size is A4.
210x297mm. In the US, letter size is more 90
commonly used. 8.5 by 11 inches (215.9 mm ×
279.4 mm)

To ensure that everyone can print out the models 70

on this website I’m gathering information to


60
establish a common printable area which can be
used by most people. If you would like to help, 50

please print out this page, making sure that the


print is set to full size or 100% then let me know
40

where the printing stops. 30

Thanks for your help!
