Multi-sheet N-Up, N-Up Sheet Feed

Page 24 highlights

Multi-sheet N-Up Multiple-sheet N-Up allows you to print more than one copy of a single job or multiple jobs on multiple sheets across the belt of either the same or different dimensions, using multiple rows of sheets until the job is complete. Use the built-in media alignment pins for quick positioning of the sheets across the printer's width. Align the left side of each sheet with one of the pins, with a small space from the right edge of the sheet to the next pin, to allow for variations in sheet dimensions. Alternatively, if you position the pins with zero clearance between the sheets and each pin, before each print be sure to raise the pins over the thickness of the sheets; otherwise the sheets could become skewed. NOTE: When printing multi-sheet N-Up on media that cannot be detected by the printer's media sensor (black, dark colored, reflective, or clear), the sheets in each row must be spaced equally. This type of printing works best with an image that has wide margins on all four edges, but edge-to-edge printing is also possible by carefully matching the dimensions of the image(s) to the dimensions of the media sheets. Margins can be defined by the RIP or can be set and adjusted on the printer. To enable, select one of the N-Up Sheet Feed options when loading media and have the number of sheets you intend to print across the width of the printer in position to be loaded. Sheets must not be more than 7.6 cm (3 in) apart from each other. Use the alignment pins if you will be printing multiple rows. ENWW Load rigid media 17

Multi-sheet N-Up
Multiple-sheet N-Up allows you to print more than one copy of a single job or multiple jobs on multiple
sheets across the belt of either the same or different dimensions, using multiple rows of sheets until the job
is complete. Use the built-in media alignment pins for quick positioning of the sheets across the printer’s
width. Align the left side of each sheet with one of the pins, with a small space from the right edge of the
sheet to the next pin, to allow for variations in sheet dimensions. Alternatively, if you position the pins with
zero clearance between the sheets and each pin, before each print be sure to raise the pins over the thickness
of the sheets; otherwise the sheets could become skewed.
NOTE:
When printing multi-sheet N-Up on media that cannot be detected by the printer's media sensor
(black, dark colored, reflective, or clear), the sheets in each row must be spaced equally.
This type of printing works best with an image that has wide margins on all four edges, but edge-to-edge
printing is also possible by carefully matching the dimensions of the image(s) to the dimensions of the media
sheets. Margins can be defined by the RIP or can be set and adjusted on the printer.
To enable, select one of the
N-Up Sheet Feed
options when loading media and have the number of sheets
you intend to print across the width of the printer in position to be loaded. Sheets must not be more than 7.6
cm (3 in) apart from each other. Use the alignment pins if you will be printing multiple rows.
