Use paper economically

Here are some recommendations for making economical use of paper:

If you are printing relatively small images or document pages, you can use nesting to print them side by side instead of one after another. See Nest jobs to save roll paper on page 79.

You may be able to save some roll paper by using the following options:

In the Windows driver dialog: select the Layout/Output tab and then Remove blank areas and/or Rotate by 90 degrees or Autorotate.

In the Mac OS X Print dialog (non-PostScript printers): select the Finishing panel, then Remove Blank Areas.

In the Mac OS X PostScript Print dialog (PostScript printers): select the Finishing panel, then Remove Blank Areas and/or Rotate by 90 degrees.

On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Advanced settings > Roll options > Remove top/bottom blank areas and/or Rotate.

If you check the print preview on your computer before printing, you can sometimes avoid wasting paper on prints containing obvious mistakes. See Preview a print on page 76.
