Load the substrate and print the diagnostic plot

1.Load the substrate in the normal way, paying particular attention to the following points.

●The stop at the right-hand end of the spindle has two possible positions on the spindle. Always use the leftmost position if possible. Use the rightmost position only if the substrate roll requires the full width of the spindle.

●Turn off the substrate-advance sensor (OMAS) in the RIP if the substrate is transparent or dark, or if the printer recommends you to do so.

●Align the printheads.

2.Open the HP diagnostic chart in the RIP. The chart is stored in your printer, at http://ip-addr/ hp/device/webAccess/images/new.tif, where ip-addris the IP address of your printer. You can also find it at http://www.hp.com/go/L26500/manuals/

3.Select a suitable number of passes for the substrate family. See Select the number of passes on page 66.

4.Print the plot.
