Copies
– Lets you choose the number of copies to be printed.
NOTE
: Driver has a limit of 32,767 copies. However, in some cases, copies are limited by the
software program. For example; Adobe Acrobat® limits copies to 999.
Reverse Order
–
If un-checked (default); the job will start printing with the first page. Printing starts as soon as the
first page loads.
If checked, job will start printing from the last page. Since the entire job must be spooled, before
being sent to the printer, it may take awhile for the job to start printing.
•
Media
– Select Type and Size. Add Custom Size.
o
Type:
Selecting the appropriate Media Type (media profile) may help you achieve better
color accuracy results.
o
Size:
Select the media/label size you are using, from the pull-down list. If the size is not
present use the “Custom Sizes” feature.
o
Custom Sizes –
Use to create and save “custom” media/label sizes.
Range: Width: 2” min to 8.5” max. Height: 1” min to 30” max.
NOTE:
The security rights on
some computer systems may
prevent you from accessing or
saving “Custom Sizes”. You may
need “admin” rights to use this
feature.
After defining a “custom media
size”; enter your desired “Media
Name” and press “Save”.
Tip:
When defining the width of a “custom media size” that measures between 8.5 and 9
inches wide; please set the width value to 8.5” (max print width of printer).
Media Orientation Tip:
When defining a “custom media size”; be sure to set the dimensions to match the actual
orientation of the media/label; as it is fed through the printer.
Example:
4” x 3” labels, fed long edge fist, would have the custom dimensions 4” W x 3” H.
4” x 3” labels, fed short edge first, would have the custom dimensions 3” W x 4” H.
Oversize –
Select this box to enable “full bleed” (borderless) printing (printing off all
edges of media/label).
When “oversize” is selected the “custom media size” you define is increased by 0.08” in
width and height; without affecting the values shown in the “Custom Media Size” screen.
IMPORTANT!
In order to take advantage of this feature; the image you send must be
slightly larger than the “custom media size” you defined. For labels with a 5 mm gap, the
image should not exceed 0.08” (2 mm) larger in height than the actual label size.
See
“Appendix A – Borderless Printing: Overspray vs. Oversize”
for important
information.
Full Bleed Example:
“Custom media size” defined as 4” W x 3” H and “oversize” selected. Label being fed
measures 4” W x 3” H. Image being sent measures 4.08” W x 3.08” H.
