Introduction This purpose of this guide is to provide operators of the HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 printers with recommendations for printing on various types of rigid media. These recommendations provide the best operating instructions under most circumstances, yet due to the variability of print media, there will be situations or scenarios that may require modification of these procedures. HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 printers work better with some media than with others. Factors such as the media's flatness, texture or smoothness, reaction to heat, surface tension and chemical composition can affect the image quality, the ability of the ink to adhere adequately and the overall usability for a particular application. Always test new media to determine if it meets your requirements before purchasing a large quantity. There are many different types of print media available throughout the world, although brands, selection and quality will vary by region. The information in this document covers a broad range of typical media types that have been tested with the HP Scitex FB500 and FB700 printers, but at the same time this is not a complete list of all compatible media. Print Mode Considerations When selecting a print mode for a specific application it is important to consider; the level of throughput (speed) desired to complete the job, the viewing distance and quality expectation for the application, and the printing characteristics of the media selected for the job. If a certain print mode selected does not generate the desired result, it may be necessary to select a different print mode.
