Ink reduction
Ink reduction lets you reduce the percentage of ink laid down by the printer. This feature
applies only to HPGL/2 format images (vector-based images) and has 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.

Nesting
Nesting allows the user to save media by printing multiple plots along the horizontal width
of the media. This feature makes the most efficient use of consumables and reduces the
time required to print multiple plots.
When nesting is active, HP-GL/2 plots will be stored within the printer, accumulating in a
nest. Printing will only begin when a nest becomes full, when a nesting timeout occurs, if
printer memory is exhausted, or when a plot that is incompatible with the current nest is
received.
A nest is full when the printer determines that no further jobs can fit across the page.
Nest timeouts are governed by the Nest Time parameter, which is set via the printer's
front panel.
If the printer runs out of memory, the current nest will be printed immediately, so that
memory may be reclaimed for use by new plots.
