tested with the HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 printers, but at the same time this is not a complete list of all compatible media. Print Mode Considerations When selecting a print mode for a specific application it is important to consider; the level of throughput (speed) desired to complete the job - HP Scitex FB700 | HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 Printer Series - Rigid Media Guide - Page 5
change the parameters using the printer's Media Wizard. Refer to the HP Scitex FB500/FB700 User Guide for details. When creating a new media type, choose a media type that best matches the characteristics and change the desired printing parameters. Also, to eliminate Media Mismatch errors, consider - HP Scitex FB700 | HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 Printer Series - Rigid Media Guide - Page 6
measures the user- and service-end edges on the first sheet, user-end edge used if the media is square. With the Standard or Maximal media measurement method, the printer will detect if the media is loaded askew and give the option to reload or use as is.

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 3 inches (7.6 cm) apart from each other. Use the alignment pins if you will be printing multiple rows.

a twenty-sheet job where you fit three sheets across, the printer will print six rows of three sheets, plus one row of two sheets. Load the last row with the sheets from the user end toward the service end. Rigid Media Guidelines Never use sheets of media that exceeds the maximum published weight - HP Scitex FB700 | HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 Printer Series - Rigid Media Guide - Page 9
: Maintain a relative humidity level of 40-60% in both the printer and media storage areas. Clean the static elimination ionizer bar every 3 months according to the instructions in the HP Scitex FB500/FB700 User Guide.
