Setting up and sending the job
Jobs are set up and sent to the MAXX 2 in the GSPPlot program. The MAXX 2 is capable of
printing any job file that can be opened in the GSPPlot program of OMEGA 1.56 or higher or
that has been rendered and saved as an SPL file. For a complete list of usable file types, click on
the down arrow beside the Files of type list box in the GSPPlot Open dialog box.
After you open a job in GSPPlot, you can use all the features of the program to set up the job
(such as rotate, panel, and repeat, for example). To use the GSPPlot program, refer to the
GSPPlot Help system.
After the job is set up, click on the print button to send the job to the MAXX 2.
