HP T1100 manual Use ink economically

Page 83

●Leave the printer permanently turned on so that it can maintain the printheads in good condition automatically. This regular printhead maintenance uses a small amount of ink. However, if it is not done, the printer may need to use much more ink later to restore the health of the printheads.

●Wide prints make more efficient use of ink than narrow prints, because printhead maintenance uses some ink, and its frequency is related to the number of passes made by the printheads. Therefore, nesting jobs can save ink as well as saving paper (see Nest jobs to save roll paper on page 69).
