The printer can print in both directions (bidirectional) or in one direction only (unidirectional). Unidirectional printing can occur in either direction. Printing occurs at about half the speed of the corresponding bidirectional print mode. Unidirectional printing eliminates the bidirectional misalignment that occurs when printing on media that is not perfectly flat.

3.Press a direction option to select it.

In Production and High Quality modes, a menu appears with these options:

Normal — prints at full speed.

Plus — provides reduced horizontal gloss banding when printing bidirectionally in large image areas or solid colors.

Normal Fine Text — prints at half the normal head speed to improve the output quality of fine text and line art by eliminating overspray.

Plus Fine Text — provides reduced gloss banding and improved fine text and line art.

Sharp Edge — improves the appearance at the edges of larger text, colored borders, graphics, and images by directing the inkjet overspray into the printed area. This mode requires an additional print pass than Normal mode. (Not available with unidirectional printing or in Billboard or Plus mode.)

CAUTION: Printing in Fine Text mode, which prints at 50% of the speed of the "normal" Production and High Quality modes, may expose the media to excessive heat from the UV lamps, which could result in bowing of the center of the media, and possible contact with the printheads. Thinner rigid media such as fluted polypropylene (Coroplast) are susceptible. To avoid warping, set a media delay in Printer Settings > Printing Delay, or in a custom Media Wizard parameter set for Fine Text printing.

This could also be an issue with Sharp Edge and Plus mode printing, although these modes print at 80% speed, so they are less susceptible to excessive heat buildup.

4.Press an option to select it.

The media settings screen appears.

5.Press the Media Settings button under any of the resolutions in the table to change the settings for that resolution.
