Ink reduction

Ink reduction lets you reduce the percentage of ink laid down by the printer. This feature applies only to HPGL/2 format images (vector-based images) and has no effect on continuous tone images. It is especially useful for images with large amounts of printed area and helps to avoid bleeding or oversaturating the media. It does, however, change

Íthe appearance of colors, so you may want to run a small test print.

To set ink reduction

1Press Setup Menu/HP-GL/2 Menu/Ink Reduction.

2Choose a reduction percentage - 0%,12.5, 25%, 37.5, or 50%.

3Press OK.

Nesting

Nesting allows the user to save media by printing multiple plots along the horizontal width of the media. This feature makes the most efficient use of consumables and reduces the time required to print multiple plots.

When nesting is active, HP-GL/2 plots will be stored within the printer, accumulating in a nest. Printing will only begin when a nest becomes full, when a nesting timeout occurs, if printer memory is exhausted, or when a plot that is incompatible with the current nest is received.

A nest is full when the printer determines that no further jobs can fit across the page.

Nest timeouts are governed by the Nest Time parameter, which is set via the printer’s front panel.

If the printer runs out of memory, the current nest will be printed immediately, so that memory may be reclaimed for use by new plots.

An incompatible plot is either a non-HP-GL/2 plot or an HP-GL/2 plot which has different job characteristics than the current nest, such as quality, dpi, or margins. If any of the following plot parameters are different between one plot and the next, the last plot will be incompatible with the current nest, causing the nest to begin printing immedi- ately.

HP-GL/2 options 3-4
