Printer Driver Properties; General Tab - Rena Mach 8 Operation Manual

SECTION 4
OPERATING THE PRINTER

Printer Driver Properties

Valid for M Series Driver, version R13
The Printer Driver for the MACH 8 Printer works the same as any other Printer Driver for Windows. It
does have some enhancements to help you maximize the ability of the Printer to print variable addressed
pieces quickly and efficiently.
Once the job is set up, click File, then
Print. The window on the right opens.
Make sure the M Series Driver is the
selected Printer. Clicking on Properties
opens the "Properties" window.

General Tab

The General tab lets you select:
•
Orientation – Portrait (default),
Landscape, Rotate 180° and Mirrored.
Tip: Instead of changing this setting
from "portrait" to "landscape";
experiment with the drop-down list of
Media "Size" selections (i.e. "6 x 9 in –
Portrait" or "6 x 9 in – Landscape") to
match the printed image orientation to
the actual orientation of how the media
is being fed into the printer.
•
Page Buffering –
If Buffer is checked; the entire print job
will be spooled before it is sent to the
printer. This may increase the time it
takes for the job to start printing, but it
may also reduce the chance of the
printer pausing to wait for data and or
displaying
"DATA_PATH_UNDERRUN" in the
Toolbox..
Mask Optimization (checked is default) optimizes images for printing in most applications.
NOTE: Some applications may display image boundaries when printed. If this occurs; try
changing (unchecking or checking) the Mask Optimization selection.
