The ''Page Setup'' dialog allows you to change the size and position of the printed image on the paper.  It also allows you to specify margins, paper size, and orientation.
The image size is controlled by specifying the model units for an inch (or centimeter) of the paper.  The scale toggle determines whether or not a scale legend is printed.  The text color and font of the scale legend can be selected by clicking on the colored rectangle to the left of the toggle.  If the Maintain Aspect Ratio toggle is not on then a scale legend cannot be printed.

Printed copies of WMS window displays can be generated by using the Print command. WMS will print to any printer supported by Windows.

When the Print command is selected the standard Windows Print dialog comes up allowing you to pick your printer, paper orientation and the typical printing parameters.

If you wish to control the size and location of the print on the paper then you should access the Page Layout command from the File menu.
