Change the advanced media settings
Introduction
The advanced media settings can help you solve problems when printing on certain special
media.
When all the advanced media settings have their default value, the button for 'Advanced
media settings' displays the word 'Default'. After you changed one or more settings, this
button displays the word 'Custom'.
This means that the 'Low temperature mode' is 'Off', 'Double-sheet detection' is 'Off',
the 'Enhanced media mode' is 'On', 'Paper quality test' is 'On' or the 'Paper quality' is
set to 'Low' or 'Lower'.
This section describes when it is recommended to change the advanced media settings.
Furthermore, this section describes how to change the settings.
When to do
'Low temperature mode'
• Pre-printed: The system is able to handle pre-printed media without problems if the
guidelines regarding pre-printed media and inks are taken into account. Contact your
local Océ representative to get a copy of these guidelines. In case media or inks are
used that are not listed in the guidelines, the use of pre-printed media can lead to
undesired print quality issues. To postpone print quality issues arising, a 'Low temper-
ature mode' is available on the printer. It is advised to enable the 'Low temperature
mode' when there are problems with processing pre-printed media. The interval be-
tween undesired print quality issues will then be increased significantly (for some
temperature sensitive inks, but no guarantee for all inks).
It is advised to enable the 'Low temperature mode' when you process pre-printed
media.
It takes several minutes until 'Low temperature mode' is reached.
The 'Low temperature mode' should not be enabled when you use media heavier than
160 g/m
• A secondary benefit (to pre-printed support) is to save energy. You can set the preheater
to a lower temperature.
'Double-sheet detection'
Double-sheet detection warns you if 2 or more sheets have been separated from the media
stack in a paper tray at the same time. However, it is not always convenient to have the
double-sheet detection enabled, for example when you use transparent media with a
cover sheet. Then you can set the 'Double-sheet detection' to 'Off'. By factory default,
'Double-sheet detection' is 'On'.
