Media Size Check
On
Choose whether the printer automatically detects (
On
), or does not
automatically detect (
Off
), the edges of the media. Try
Off
if the printer
displays a
Media Size Error
when the media is correctly loaded. Note,
however, that the printer may print beyond the edges of the media when
Off
is selected. Ink used outside the edges of the media will stain the
inside of the printer. We generally recommend to operate with this
setting set to
On
.
Off
Media End Check
On
Choose whether the printer automatically detects (
On
) or does not
automatically detect (
Off
), the end of the media. Try
Off
if the printer
displays
Media Out
when the media is correctly loaded. We generally
recommend to operate with this setting set to
On
.
Off
Media Skew Check
On
When skewed media is detected, the printer will either stop printing and
display an error (
On
) or continue printing (
Off
).
On
is recommended in
most circumstances, as skewed media may cause the printer to jam.
Off
Print Nozzle Pattern
Off
Choose the frequency with which the printer prints a nozzle test pattern:
never (
Off
) or once every
1
to
10
pages. Periodic test patterns will not be
printed while
Off
is selected. To print a test pattern at the top of every 1
to 10 pages, select an option between
1
and
10
. When printing is
complete, you can visually inspect the pattern to determine whether
there may be faint or missing colors in the preceding or following
printout.
