Paper saved by nesting How to use nesting Here are some general guidelines for using nesting: ● To enable nesting, use the front panel (Job Management menu) or the Embedded Web Server (Setup tab). ● If you are working with batches of jobs with the same format, choose nesting In order. This will close the nest as the first file with a new format arrives. ● If you are working with mixed file formats, choose nesting Optimized. This option will nest compatible pages in the queue, allowing for a gap of up to 3 incompatible pages before closing the nest (See nesting compatibility below). ● For the jobs you want nested together, choose common values you will be using and create presets. You can use the Embedded Web Server's Manage Presets tab to save your presets. NOTE: If you have a multiroll printer with nesting enabled, your printer will do its best to save paper. This means that the roll on which less paper is wasted will be chosen regardless of the roll switching option you have selected (see Roll switching options on page 20). NOTE: The printer will nest up to eight compatible jobs in a row. TIP: Use the paper mismatch action Print anyway to minimize paper waste by skipping paper source or paper type restrictions. For a more fine-grained nesting of jobs based on desired paper source or type, use the Put job on hold paper mismatch action. TIP: If you have a roll that is expensive or for special purposes only, use roll protection so that jobs with unspecified paper type and source will not be able to use your special roll (see Roll protection on page 87).
