VinylJet 36TM Reference Guide

Control

Control determines whether certain printing parameters are set in the software application or overridden by the printer's front panel. Control overrides the following parameters of the HP-GL/2 header file: repeat plot (RP) and enable auto cutter (EC).

Repeat Plot: With Control set to Printer, the printer will ignore RP commands in the plot file and only print one plot. From the printer's front panel you can specify additional copies using the Reprints menu.

Enable Auto Cutter: With Control set to Printer, the printer will ignore EC commands in the plot file and will not automatically cut after each plot. From the printer's front panel, you can enable automatic cutting or initiate a command for a single cut.

✓Do not override software control when sending merged raster/vector data to the printer.

4Press Select.

Rotation

The printer automatically prints an image with the long side on the paper axis. To better fit images and save media, you can use the Rotation option to turn vector files counterclockwise 90 degrees at a time. If the rotation specified won't fit on the media or contains raster images, it will not be rotated. When the Rotate value is set to AUTO, the algorithm will automatically rotate the plot if it determines that the rotation will save media (regardless of whether Nesting is enabled). If Rotate is set to 0, the plot will not be rotated. The Control function does not override the RO command in the plot file.

Note: Rotation is supported for HP-GL/2 files only. It is not supported for RTL files.
