Pre-printed Paper
Pre-printed paper is paper that has ruled lines, letters, or figures printed in the top and bottom margins. The middle of the paper is left blank. The margin areas are often used for letterheads, borders, and so on. You can make your own pre-printed paper or you can purchase it.
You cannot pre-print in the areas shown with diagonal lines in the illustration below.
