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