* For an image to be processed, a margin section of 5 pixels is prepared. For each image shown on the table, from width value
- 5 pixels to width value + 5 pixels can be accommodated to the system. Similarly, from height 5 pixels to height + 5
pixels can be accommodated to the system.
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.

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.

Converting from an ICB tools 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 tools 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 tools 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
