Configuring Media

Before printing on your loaded media, create a configuration or settings bank (a group of print settings) for
the media. Create a configuration for each media type you use (up to 30 types) and select the desired
configuration whenever you print on that media. This ensures that the printer uses the optimum print
quality settings, and is the most effective way to avoid banding problems.

Pre-Printing Checklist

Whenever you print on a new media type, follow these guidelines to configure the media and print:
•
Check the media packaging for print requirements.
•
Select a media bank number (1 to 30) and assign an alphanumeric name that your users will recognize.
•
Select these settings using the information supplied with your media:
Platen Gap
•
Auto Media Adjust or Media Adjust
•
Heating & Drying
•
Advanced Settings
•
Note: The Heating & Drying setting is especially important, and includes several sub-settings.
•
Check the amount of ink remaining.
•
Shake ink cartridges.
•
Print a nozzle check pattern and clean the print head, if necessary. See page 20.
•
Select the Setting Name for the media and print.
