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 counter-
clockwise 90 degrees at a time. If the rotation specified won't fit on the media or con-
tains 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.

Ink reduction
Ink reduction lets you reduce the percentage of ink laid down by the printer. This feature
no effect on continuous tone images. It is especially useful for images with large
amounts of printed area and helps to avoid bleeding or oversaturating the media. It does,
however, change the appearance of colors, so you may want to run a small test print.
