If you require the job to be printed in High Speed mode, select this
option.

If you do not require the job to be printed either in High Quality or
High Speed mode, select
Automatic
.
This setting enables the Objet software to determine (just before
printing) the most efficient way to print the tray. Digital Material mode
is used if this removes the need to perform the Material Replacement
procedure. Otherwise, High Speed mode is used.
For example, if printing the tray requires only one of the model
materials loaded in the printer, only the two print heads using that
material are used to print models—Digital Material mode. (High
Quality and High Speed modes call for printing model material with
four heads, which would require you to perform the Material
Replacement procedure.)
On the other hand, if printing the tray can be done using four print
heads without running the Material Replacement procedure, High
Speed mode is used. This is possible if all print heads are supplied with
one model material, or if you allow printing with an arbitrary mixture
of similar materials (see below).

The Model Material Substitution dialog box opens—if this is relevant for
the tray. (If not, the Job Summary dialog box opens—continue with
step 4.)
Model Quality When Digital Material Mode is Used
•
Near-high-quality is achieved for most models.
•
A tray of objects inserted from stl files are printed with the standard
600 dpi (dots per inch) resolution along the Y-axis—unless glossy finish
is required (see “Surface Finish” on page 23).
•
If there is an assembly on the tray, all of the models on the tray are
printed with a resolution of 300 dpi along the Y-axis.
