2 Getting to know the Wide Format Copy System
NOTE: Only media types actually loaded into the Printer can be selected. When a roll is selected, the media type for that roll is automatically selected also. If more than one media type is loaded when the media source is set to Auto, the default choice priority is Bond (first), Vellum (second), and Film (third). Refer to the applicable Printer Operator Manual for instructions about how to load rolls and specify the width and media type.

Preset
Preset allows you to select a predefined length to which the roll media should be cut during printing. The associated width specification will depend on the Media Source selection.

If Media Source is set to R1, R2, R3, or R4; the system will use the selected roll regardless of the width specification.
