When a Black Frame or Lines Show
up on the Printouts
When you print an image that is narrower or wider than
the standard screen size, a black frame may be printed or
the image may be partially cut. Or, a black line may
show up on the printout even though it does not appear
on the video monitor. Any portion for which there is no
video signal is printed in black. This may occur when
you make printouts after connecting a different video
source or play back using different video software. In
such a case, you can adjust the printout area by moving
the screen either horizontally or vertically.
