HP 8000s manual Color stripe setting Color Stripe, Printhead height setting PH Height VAL

Page 187

NOTE For Celsius/Fahrenheit conversions:

F = (9 × C / 5) + 32

C = 5 × (F - 32) / 9

NOTE This value will only be applied if the HEATER PREF option is set to HEAT PANEL.

Color stripe setting (COLOR STRIPE)

A color stripe is printed on all plots. This ensures that all printhead nozzles are used in all prints, even if the printed image does not include certain colors. The color stripe avoids drying of nozzles even if they are not used for a long time because they are not needed within your printed images. This option activates or deactivates printing of the color stripe for the selected media type.

Parameters:

●OFF — Does not print the color stripe.

●ON — Prints the color stripe.

NOTE Use of the color stripe will add 40 mm (1.57 in) to your print margin.

NOTE We recommend that you set COLOR STRIPE to ON if possible. If the color stripe is not printed, this can affect printhead nozzle performance.

The color stripe is printed on the test print even if this option is set to OFF.

Printhead height setting (PH HEIGHT VAL)

Use this option to set the printhead height for the selected media type. Change this setting when you change the printing carriage height (see How do I… Change the printhead height).

Parameters:

●NORMAL — Default.

●HIGH — Set for thick media.

Bidirectional print position adjustment (BIDIR DEF VALUE)

For the selected media type, use this option to adjust the position of all the printheads when using bidirectional printing for all print modes except FINE and F-FINE.

Enter an adjustment value based on the printhead adjustment pattern print. See How do I calibrate my printer.
