Printer Settings To display this menu, press the Settings button on the Front Page screen. Printer Settings enables you to set many options that control how the printer operates. Settings saved by the Media Wizard are indicated by MEDIA WIZARD in the margin. MEDIA WIZARD MEDIA WIZARD • Vacuum Control - turns on the vacuum fans, then allows you to raise or lower the fan speed. Raise the speed if the media is warped and rising off the platen, lower the speed if the media is buckling or wrinkling. Turn off the vacuum fans for lightweight media. There are three vacuum zones: • Input Zone - from the media alignment bar to about halfway to the input end of the media drive belt. This zone is automatically turned off during the media load process until the SHEET READY foot switch is depressed. • Pre-Print Zone - from the media alignment bar to just before the printhead carriage. • Print Zone - under the printhead carriage. • Printing Delay - slows throughput (media advance speed) to allow the media to cool between passes, preventing warping of rigid media or curling of roll-fed media. • Gutter Settings - determines the appearance of the top and side gutters: • Top Gutters - allows you to turn On or Off the gutter data at the top edge of the print, which shows the job name, ink, media, date and time printed, print mode, lamps setting, printer, embedded software version, plus write-in blanks for other data. • Side Gutters - sets the side gutter pattern to Narrow, Medium, or Wide sizes, or turns them Off. Side gutter patterns help keep the inkjets open by firing ink through them in a pattern outside the printed image area. • Margin Settings • Space Between Prints (roll-fed) - sets the blank space between print jobs, between 0 and 10 inches (25 cm). 5-10 Menus

Menus
Printer Settings
To display this menu, press the Settings button on the Front
Page screen. Printer Settings enables you to set many options
that control how the printer operates. Settings saved by the
Media Wizard are indicated by
MEDIA WIZARD
in the margin.
MEDIA WIZARD
Vacuum Control
— turns on the vacuum fans, then allows
you to raise or lower the fan speed. Raise the speed if the
media is warped and rising off the platen, lower the speed if
the media is buckling or wrinkling. Turn off the vacuum fans
for lightweight media. There are three vacuum zones:
Input Zone — from the media alignment bar to about half-
way to the input end of the media drive belt. This zone is
automatically turned off during the media load process
until the SHEET READY foot switch is depressed.
Pre-Print Zone — from the media alignment bar to just
before the printhead carriage.
Print Zone — under the printhead carriage.
MEDIA WIZARD
Printing Delay
— slows throughput (media advance speed)
to allow the media to cool between passes, preventing warp-
ing of rigid media or curling of roll-fed media.
Gutter Settings
— determines the appearance of the top
and side gutters:
Top Gutters — allows you to turn
On
or
Off
the gutter
data at the top edge of the print, which shows the job
name, ink, media, date and time printed, print mode,
lamps setting, printer, embedded software version, plus
write-in blanks for other data.
Side Gutters — sets the side gutter pattern to
Narrow
,
Medium
, or
Wide
sizes, or turns them
Off
. Side gutter
patterns help keep the inkjets open by firing ink through
them in a pattern outside the printed image area.
Margin Settings
Space Between Prints (roll-fed) — sets the blank space
between print jobs, between 0 and 10 inches (25 cm).
