Definition
To achieve optimal output quality, make sure that you load and define the correct
media type on the printer.
You can use the 'Change media type' wizard, to load a media roll and to change the
media type defined on the system.
Make sure you define the correct media type for your job. Make sure the media type
and the media format defined in your job is available on the printer.
Define the correct media on the printer and the correct settings in the job submission
tools to set the Océ TCS500 for productive use or high output quality.

The above procedure is based on DIN media sizes. You can also use this
procedure with ANSI media sizes.

When productivity with different media sizes is the most important
requirement.
1 Load and define 2 or 3 media rolls on the printer with different media sizes
and the same media types.
2 Use the 'Landscape' orientation to print a job on a media size that is one
size smaller than the media defined on the system. For example, A1 prints
in landscape on A0 and A2 prints in landscape on A1. You are not required
to cut the media by hand.
3 Use the 'Auto rotate' setting in the Océ Settings Editor or the job
submission tools to rotate the orientation automatically.
When productivity is the only important requirement.
1 Load and define two media rolls on the printer with the same media sizes
and the same media types.
Note: When roll 1 is empty, the printer switches automatically
to roll 2. You can load a new roll while the printing process
continues.
When the output quality is the most important requirement.
1 Load and define 2 or 3 media rolls on the printer with the same media sizes
and with different media types.
2 Select the media types you define based on the output quality you require.
