IMPORTANT
If you are using an add-on a third-party Raster Image Processor (RIP), in order to
create additional print modes on your plotter, then the above table may not apply.
In this case, consult your RIP vendor for advice on the best settings for your re-
quirements.
A clue as to whether you are using a RIP or not is the message on the
plotter’s front panel while it is printing.
If the message
“STATUS / Printing (spe-
cial)”
appears, then you
are
using a RIP.
If the message
“STATUS / Printing”
appears, then you are probably
not using a RIP.
