Managing Your Prints Avoiding Media Waste by Nesting Pages Turning Nesting On or Off and Choosing the Nesting Method QUEUEING & NESTING Nest All menu modes Default: Off Nest Setting Selected Off Optimal In order Printer's Response The printer will not nest pages. Choose this if you want to use the least amount of media. The printer will search all through the queue for suitable pages. It will nest the pages according to an algorithm that, for most combinations of page sizes, saves the most media. The resulting nesting pattern may still vary, depending on the size of the first page. Choose this if the speed with which you receive your prints is most important. The printer will try to nest pages in their queue sequence. If it comes across an incompatible page, it will stop searching and print any nest it has already created. NOTE:The Optimal setting does not affect PostScript files. If Optimal is selected when printing a PostScript file, Nesting will function as if In order is selected. What Happens to Nesting if You Turn Queueing Off? Turning queueing off does not turn nesting off for pages already in the queue. The printer prints all the pages in the queue before accepting any more files. As soon as you turn queueing off, the nesting setting also changes to off. When queueing is turned on again, the printer restores nesting to its previous setting. 7-14
