I am supposed to print the area closest to the blue line in the centre of a map that looks like this:
I am not interested in seeing the imagery that is far away from the blue line in the centre. However, it is only supposed to have a scale of 1:10,000, which looks like this in Layout View:
Is there a way to only print the imagery closest to the blue line, but not have it be zoomed in on only one area of the line? I've tried using larger paper but it looks the same on each size.

Andy's comment will let you crop everything down, but it doesn't work if all you want to crop is the imagery and not other layers/lines. To do that:
Note that scale is independent of clipping. If you have to use 1:10k as your print scale but can't show the whole line, you need to use a bigger paper size. Otherwise you'll have to use a smaller scale (ie 1:30k).
