Printing Options menu

●Print Position and Eject Settings — this menu option controls two related functions that enable you to control how print jobs are positioned on sheet-fed media, and how to eject the sheets:

◦Position — when the printed image does not span the entire width of the media, positions the printed image flush left (nearest the control panel or user side), flush right, centered, or nested on the media (if Auto Eject Off is selected).

◦Eject — you can choose whether the media is ejected to the output or input side after each job prints, or disable automatic eject.

See Position and eject options on page 25 for further details.

●Space Between Prints (roll-fed) — sets the blank space between print jobs, between 0–25 cm (0–10 in).

●Measure Media (sheet-fed) — for cut-sheet media, you can choose various levels of precision for finding the left (user end), right (service end), and front edges of the media. First, the printer prompts you to select a measurement frequency (trade-off between precision and speed):

◦Measure only on first load — measure only once, after you configure the media; best for fast throughput when precise image placement is not required or when using the media alignment pins

◦Measure on all loads — best for precise image placement, such as for N-UP and edge-to- edge printing

◦Don’t measure media — best for fast throughput when precise image placement is not required and there are very wide margins around the image

After you select one of these options, the printer prompts you to select a measurement type:

◦Minimal — measures the width of the media once and finds the front right edge; no skew detection

◦Standard — measures the width of the media once, and finds the front edge in two places to estimate skew

◦One Edge — (available with Measure on all loads is selected) measures the user- and service-end edges on the first sheet, user-end edge only on subsequent sheets, and the front right edge (no skew detection). For single-sheet jobs only, not available for multi-sheet N-UP. Works best on jobs with wider margins.

◦Maximal — measures the width of the media in two places to estimate skew

Scitex FB700 Industrial specifications

The HP Scitex FB700 is an industrial flatbed printer designed to meet the rigorous demands of high-quality large-format printing. Launched by HP, this printer offers businesses incredible versatility, speed, and precision, making it an essential tool for print service providers looking to enhance their productivity and expand their service offerings.

One of the standout features of the HP Scitex FB700 is its print quality. Equipped with HP's proprietary UV inks, the printer delivers vibrant colors, sharp images, and excellent durability. These inks are designed for a wide range of substrates, making it possible to print on materials such as rigid boards, flexible media, and even specialty applications like textiles. The FB700 supports a maximum print resolution of 1200 dpi, ensuring that every detail is faithfully rendered.

A key technology in the FB700 is its UV curing capability. This technology allows the printer to cure the inks almost instantly as they are applied, which not only speeds up the printing process but also enables printing on heat-sensitive materials. The ability to quickly switch between different substrates, from foam board to acrylic, offers unparalleled flexibility for businesses looking to meet diverse client needs.

Moreover, the HP Scitex FB700 features a user-friendly interface, enhanced by HP’s smart technology. This includes automated calibration and quality control systems that help maintain consistent print quality while reducing the likelihood of errors. The printer is also designed with ease of maintenance in mind, allowing operators to focus on production rather than troubleshooting.

In terms of productivity, the FB700 excels with a high throughput rate. Capable of producing prints up to 95 m² per hour, this printer is suited for high-volume jobs, enabling businesses to take on larger projects without sacrificing quality. Its robust design ensures reliability and efficiency, making it ideal for busy print environments.

Lastly, sustainability is an important consideration within the printing industry, and the HP Scitex FB700 addresses this concern by utilizing low-VOC inks and energy-efficient components. This commitment to eco-friendliness allows companies to meet their sustainability goals while maintaining a competitive edge in the market.

In summary, the HP Scitex FB700 Industrial printer is a powerful tool that combines high performance, versatility, and ease of use. With its advanced printing technologies, exceptional print quality, and commitment to sustainability, it is well-equipped to handle the diverse demands of modern printing applications.
