Each supported printing material has its own characteristics; refer to physical characteristics of printing materials. For optimum image quality the printer changes the way it prints onto each different printing material. For example, some may need more ink and some may require a longer drying time. So the printer must be given a description of the requirements of each printing material. This description is called the "media profile". Existing media profiles for your printer are already installed in the printer's software. However, you would find it inconvenient to scroll through a list of all HP printing materials, so your printer contains media profiles for only the most commonly used materials. If you buy an HP printing material for which your printer has no media profile, you will find that you cannot select that material in your printer driver, in WebAccess, or in your printer's front panel. In this case, you should use webaccess to download the correct media profile. © 2002 hewlett-packard company file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/---/Desktop/HP/html/p0025.htm [8/5/2002 2:38:11 PM]
