To enable autorotation: ● In the Windows driver dialog: select the Features tab, then Autorotate. ● In the MAC OS X Print dialog: go to the Finishing panel and select Autorotate. ● On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Advanced settings > Roll options > Autorotate. ● In the front panel: select the Setup menu icon , then Job management > Autorotate. NOTE: If autorotation is set from your computer, it overrides the setting in the front panel. NOTE: If autorotation is enabled, the Rotate option is ignored. NOTE: The autorotate decision requires known page dimensions. Therefore, the job must have When to Start Printing set to After Processing (see Select when to print a job in the queue on page 92) and cannot have variable dimensions, which happens when Fit to roll or Remove top/bottom blank areas is used. TIP: Once the job is rendered and ready for reprints, autorotation may take a few minutes, depending on job dimensions and resolution. To speed up autorotated reprints, send the job to render when the roll configuration meets your planned scenario, and leave last-minute autorotation only to correct unexpected changes in roll conditions. This applies to TIFF/JPEG/PS/PDF jobs only. Print in gray shades You can convert all colors in your image to shades of gray in the following ways: ● In your application program: many programs provide this option. ● In the Windows driver dialog: go to the Color tab and look at the Color Options section. Select Print in Grayscale. ● In the Mac OS X Print dialog: go to the Color Options panel and select Grayscale from the Mode drop- down list. ● On the Embedded Web Server's Submit Job page: select Color > Color/Grayscale pure grays/ Grayscale full set of inks > Print in grayscale. Use paper economically Here are some recommendations for making economical use of paper: ● If you are printing relatively small images or document pages, you can use nesting to print them side by side instead of one after another. See Nest jobs to save paper on page 75. ● If you are printing multipage documents with relatively small pages, you can print up to 16 of them on one sheet of paper. Use the Pages per sheet option in the Features tab (Windows driver) or the Layout panel (MAC OS X driver). ● You may be able to save some roll paper by using the following options: 74 Chapter 6 Print options ENWW
