Roll protection If you choose to protect a roll, jobs will be printed on it only if the job explicitly specifies the roll number or the paper type loaded on the roll. This may be useful, for example, in the following cases. ● To stop people from accidentally printing unimportant jobs on expensive paper. ● To avoid printing on a particular roll when printing from AutoCAD without interacting with the HP printer driver. To protect a roll, go to the front panel and select the Setup menu icon options > Roll protection. , then Printing preferences > Paper NOTE: If you protect a roll, then later unload the current roll and load a new one, the new roll remains protected. You are protecting the roll number, not one specific roll of paper. That roll number will remain protected until you cancel the protection. TIP: If you print without specifying a roll number or paper type, you will not be able to print on any protected roll. Unattended printing/overnight printing Here are some recommendations to help you to deal with a long queue of printing jobs. ● If feasible, use brand-new long rolls of paper. ● If you want to print on partly-used rolls, you can check the paper type and the remaining length in the Embedded Web Server or in the front panel, to confirm that you have enough paper to print all your jobs. NOTE: Information on the remaining length is available only if you told the printer the length of the roll when you loaded it, or if the printer read the length of the roll from the barcode printed on it. ● Load two rolls of paper suitable for your jobs. If the printer finishes one roll, it will automatically switch to the other. ● Check that you have paper wide enough to print all of your jobs. Any jobs that are too wide may be put "on hold for paper" if the paper mismatch action is set to Put job on hold (see Paper mismatch action on page 19). ● Check the ink levels remaining in your ink cartridges. ● When you have submitted your print jobs, you can use the Embedded Web Server from a remote location to monitor their status. ● Drying time should be set to Automatic. ● For high throughput, select the Setup menu icon , then Printing preferences > Paper options > Roll switching options > Minimize roll changes or Use roll with less paper. ● For economical use of paper, select the Setup menu icon , then Printing preferences > Paper options > Roll switching options > Minimize paper waste and Autorotate On.

Roll protection
If you choose to protect a roll, jobs will be printed on it only if the job explicitly specifies the roll number or the
paper type loaded on the roll. This may be useful, for example, in the following cases.
●
To stop people from accidentally printing unimportant jobs on expensive paper.
●
To avoid printing on a particular roll when printing from AutoCAD without interacting with the HP printer
driver.
To protect a roll, go to the front panel and select the Setup menu icon
, then
Printing preferences
>
Paper
options
>
Roll protection
.
NOTE:
If you protect a roll, then later unload the current roll and load a new one, the new roll remains
protected. You are protecting the roll number, not one specific roll of paper. That roll number will remain
protected until you cancel the protection.
TIP:
If you print without specifying a roll number or paper type, you will not be able to print on any protected
roll.
Unattended printing/overnight printing
Here are some recommendations to help you to deal with a long queue of printing jobs.
●
If feasible, use brand-new long rolls of paper.
●
If you want to print on partly-used rolls, you can check the paper type and the remaining length in the
Embedded Web Server or in the front panel, to confirm that you have enough paper to print all your jobs.
NOTE:
Information on the remaining length is available only if you told the printer the length of the roll
when you loaded it, or if the printer read the length of the roll from the barcode printed on it.
●
Load two rolls of paper suitable for your jobs. If the printer finishes one roll, it will automatically switch to
the other.
●
Check that you have paper wide enough to print all of your jobs. Any jobs that are too wide may be put “on
hold for paper” if the paper mismatch action is set to
Put job on hold
(see
Paper mismatch action
on page
19
).
●
Check the ink levels remaining in your ink cartridges.
●
When you have submitted your print jobs, you can use the Embedded Web Server from a remote location
to monitor their status.
●
Drying time should be set to
Automatic
.
●
For high throughput, select the Setup menu icon
, then
Printing preferences
>
Paper options
>
Roll
switching options
>
Minimize roll changes
or
Use roll with less paper
.
●
For economical use of paper, select the Setup menu icon
, then
Printing preferences
>
Paper options
>
Roll switching options
>
Minimize paper waste
and
Autorotate On
.
