SETTING PRINT MODES

GETTING STARTED

 

 

Setting print modes

Note: The counters referred to in this section are located in the Run view (touch screen) and not the mechanical counter on the sub-operator panel. The mechanical counter counts drum rotations and not pages.

The Print Mode tab is provided to enable or disable the following print mode features:

•The Both Side Printing Enabled box – when checked, this enables duplex printing.

•The Print Mode Switching Enabled box – when checked, this reduces lost production due to the time it takes to switch between duplex and simplex mode.

•The Economy Mode box - when checked, this will remember the mode of the last job before power off and start up in the same mode. If this box is not checked, the printer will power up in duplex mode. This feature is only available if Print Mode Switching has been enabled.

The choice is a balance between economy of time and economy of printer consumables.

Setting print modes can be done in the following three different ways:

1. Both Side Printing enabled and Print Mode Switching disabled

•When a duplex job is received, the printer prints in duplex mode and 2 pages are added each time to the counter.

•When a simplex job is received, the printer prints in simplex mode but, because both engines are running, 2 pages are added each time to the counter.

2. Both Side Printing disabled and Print Mode Switching disabled

•When a simplex job is received, the printer prints in simplex mode and, because only one engine is running, 1 page is added each time to the counter.

•When a duplex job is received, the printer goes into error and cannot print. This is because only one engine is running. To correct the error, manually activate Both Side Printing. The printer will start to print as soon as the second engine is ready.

3. Both Side Printing enabled and Print Mode Switching enabled

•If you check the Print Mode Switching Enabled box, press the Number of Simple Side Forms Before Print Mode Switching box and enter the number of pages (10 is the minimum). When you enter a number that is not a multiple of 10, it will be rounded up to the next multiple of ten (8 will become 10, 12 will become 20).

•When a duplex job is received, the printer prints in duplex mode and 2 pages are added each time to the counter.

•When a simplex job is received after a duplex job, the printer will continue to print in duplex mode for the number of pages shown in the window before switching into simplex mode.

Note: Duplex mode in this case means that the simplex data will be printed and the back page data will be blank.

The printer adds 2 pages each time to the counter until it reaches the
