7 ICB Print sizes, Image sizes, and MS01 Product's Paper sizes
7.1 Default ICB’s Print sizes versus Image sizes and MS01 Product’s Paper sizes
The following table shows the list of pre-registered ICB templates, the corresponding image sizes to be processed, and
the corresponding pre-registered MS01 products. Each line shows their suitable relation.
In case of using a pre-registered ICB template on the MS01 system, a paper size of MS01 product, a print size of
pre-registered ICB template, and an image size to be processed should fit together (*).
- 5 pixels” to “width value + 5 pixels” can be accommodated to the system. Similarly, from “height – 5 pixels” to “height + 5
Example) For the ICB template of 3R, as a horizontal image, the width ranges from 1495 to 1505 pixels, and the height
ranges from 1046 to 1056 pixels can be accommodated to the system.

7.2 Converting from ICB’s Print sizes to Image sizes / MS01
Paper sizes. And vice versa
If you want to process an image of unlisted size on the above table, then you have to convert the image size to a print size,
then you have to register a newly converted print size to ICB.
Following is the calculating formula to convert from an image size to a print size, and oppositely to convert from a print
size to a image size.
Refer to Section “5.3.Adding Print Sizes” in this manual, to know how to register a new print size to ICB.
2) Converting from an ICB tool’s Print size setting to a Paper size of MS01 Product
For given “X” and “Y”,
“X” is any Width (in 0.1 mm units), and “Y” is any Height (in 0.1 mm units) of ICB tool’s Print size.
To register as a Horizontal MS01 product
Paper Width (mm) = X / 10
Paper Height (mm) = Y / 10
To register as a Vertical MS01 product
Paper Width (mm) = Y / 10
Paper Height (mm) = X / 10
3) Converting from a Paper size of MS01 Product to an ICB tool’s Print size setting
For given “X” and “Y”,
“X” is any Width (mm), and “Y” is a Height (mm) of MS01 Product Paper size.
For a Horizontal Product of MS01 product
Print size Width (in 0.1 mm units) = X * 10
Print size Height (in 0.1 mm units) = Y * 10
21
For a Vertical Product of MS01
Print Size Width (in 0.1 mm units) = Y * 10
Print Size Height (in 0.1 mm units) = X * 10
Note) All the images are registered in a horizontal style to the ICB tool’s Print size setting.
