HP 98SI, 72SI manual Media Wizard

Media Wizard

The Media Wizard software feature stores a set of printing parameters by media type, enabling you to instantly optimize the printer whenever you change media. The Media Wizard includes standard sets of parameters for popular media types, and allows you to define new settings for media types you define.

The Media Wizard can store a different set of settings for each of the print modes (Billboard, Production, High), or use the same settings for all three modes.

The Media Wizard is accessible during the media load process (see “Loading Roll-Fed Media” on page 3-16) and from the Front Page screen (as follows).

Tip	To use the Media Wizard most efficiently, start by
	using one of the standard media types. If you are not
	using a standard media type, select the standard
	media type that most closely matches the media you
	are using. Then only if necessary, create a new media
	type using the standard type you selected as a start-
	ing point, and adjust it as needed.

1.From the Front Page screen, press the Media Wizard key.

The Media Wizard menu appears. It contains the following options:

◆Media Settings — displays the settings currently stored in the Media Wizard

◆Create Media Type — creates a new media type using settings you specify

◆Delete Media Type — deletes a user-created media type

◆View Media Types — allows you to view each of the media types stored in the Media Wizard

◆Set Sort Method — allows you to sort the list of media names Alphabetically, by Most Used, Recently Used, Sheet-fed First, Roll-fed First, or None (preserves the cur- rent order).

2.When you select Media Settings, the control panel displays the current settings.

◆To change the current settings, press the Media Settings key.
