PRINT JOBS AND PRESETS
Off: The drawing is not mirrored when plotted.
X:
The drawing is mirrored horizontally.
Y: The drawing is mirrored vertically.
XY: The drawing is mirrored about both axes simultaneously;
equates to a 180° rotation.
You usually use these settings if the drawing has been scanned
and saved with mirror inversion. This is especially important if a
translucence has been scanned with mirror inversion to increase
the contrast.
•
Invert
If you activate this option with "On", the drawing is inverted, i.e.
black and white colors are swapped or inverted.
• Cut Mode
The options available are "Format" and "Synchro". If you select
"Synchro", the plotter RW-480 cuts the drawing immediately af-
ter the last set of data. This results in optimum paper or medium
usage, because it produces the least waste.
If, on the other hand, you want the print out to always be cut in
a standard format, no matter how much paper remains unprin-
ted, activate "Format", thereby instructing the plotter to always
cut the paper to the next largest format. This can be a disadvan-
tage if e.g. your drawing is only around 0.5 cm larger than an
ISO A5 Page, an ISO A4-Page is printed and so almost 50 % of
the sheet remains unused. The advantage of this option is that
some folders require exact formats and you can meet this requi-
rement with the "Format" setting.
MainOptions 2
The "MainOptions 2" is also opened via the "General" drop
down menu. Here you can alter the following settings:
• Media type
Select the type of medium to be used to print the drawing: Pa-
per, Translucent, Film or Recycled Paper. The selection depends
on the medium you have loaded on the rolls of your plotter RW-
480.
