Introduction Media & Ink Solutions Front Panel Printer Options Other Index Page Format Setting Page Size in the Front Panel Image Appearance Print Management Printer Configuration Job Rotation Using an HP PostScript Driver By default the jobs generated by any of the PostScript drivers provided with the printer are printed in portrait, even if the image viewed in your application is in landscape orientation. In order to save paper you need to rotate the job through the PostScript driver interface. Rotating a job is controlled by a setting in the PostScript driver, it can be enabled or disabled. When you enable the rotation feature both the page and the image are rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise. Note that the HP driver will over-ride the setting in the front-panel. NOTE: Consult the PostScript driver documentation to find out where you set the rotation feature. Job Rotation (HP-GL/2) If the software in the driver does not specify the rotation setting, it can be specified in the front panel (Paper > Page Format > Rotate). Page Size and the Rotation Note that when you rotate a job the page size is enlarged to avoid clipping, because the trailing and leading margins are not the same size as the side margins. When rotating, the page size is enlarged across the paper direction to ensure that the drawing is not clipped. Rotating a Job with a Third Party PostScript Driver If you are using a third party PostScript driver, you can rotate the image using the Rotate setting in the front panel (Paper > Page Format > Rotate). For more information consult the documentation of the third party driver.
