-In the **//Print settings//** section, you can specify whether the **//printout should show exactly what//** is visible in the graphics window – in most cases, this will not make optimal use of the paper format because the graphics window has a different page-to-height ratio. If this field is not selected, the printout will show more than is visible in the graphics window. However, the scale of the graphics window will remain unchanged in all cases. +In the **//Settings for printout//** section, you can specify whether the **//printout should show exactly what//** is visible in the graphics window – in most cases, this will not make optimal use of the paper format because the graphics window has a different page-to-height ratio.

 You can also specify whether **//colours optimised for the printer//** should be used. This only affects the display of the axes and the background. The paper in printers is usually white – displaying the graphic with a black background, as used when installing CGRAPH for graphics, would mean that the paper would have to be printed in black. If this field is selected, CGRAPH prints on a white background instead and colours the axes, markers and labels black and the background grid grey to match. The colours of the graphics are retained in all cases. You can also specify whether **//colours optimised for the printer//** should be used.
