Color stripe setting (COLOR STRIPE) A color stripe is printed on all plots. This ensures that all printhead nozzles are used in all prints, even if the printed image does not include certain colors. The color stripe avoids drying of nozzles even if they are not used for a long time because they are not needed within your printed images. This option activates or deactivates printing of the color stripe for the selected media type. Parameters: ● OFF - Does not print the color stripe. ● ON - Prints the color stripe. NOTE Use of the color stripe will add 40 mm (1.57 in) to your print margin. NOTE We recommend that you set COLOR STRIPE to ON if possible. If the color stripe is not printed, this can affect printhead nozzle performance. The color stripe is printed on the test print even if this option is set to OFF.
