3. Select the parent substrate. Show details can help you to choose one that's similar to the new substrate. If you choose a generic substrate, select the ink density according to the expected behaviour and applications for your substrate. TIP: Use 100% ink density for substrates such as PVC Scrim Banner Frontlit, Green Banner, Vinyl-Calendared, Vinyl-Cast, Blue back and Scrim banner. TIP: Use 150 or 250% ink density for substrates such as PVC Scrim Banner Backlit, Perforated Vinyl, Polyester Film, Polyester Fabric, Canvas Polyester and Tyvek. Handle the substrate 4. You can now press the Create button to create a new entry in the substrates list, in the Custom substrates category, with all its characteristics inherited from the parent substrate. Press Finish if you do not plan to modify any substrate setting for now. Consider how you plan to use your new substrate. If you require high-quality printing, you will need more passes; if you require fast printing, you will need fewer passes. Make a list of the print modes you are most likely to use. Fine-tune the settings in your new preset In the Settings pane you can modify various settings used in the printing process. NOTE: The changes in the Settings pane apply only to the highlighted print mode, so you must adjust each print mode independently. Any setting you have changed is indicated by an asterisk (*). 1. Select the number of print passes that you want to use. Color calibration uses six passes with 100% ink density, eight passes with 150% ink density, or fourteen passes with 250% ink density. You are recommended to create a preset suitable for color calibration; for normal printing, you may want to create other presets with different numbers of passes. The recommended print modes for normal printing are as follows.
