Paper and Media
PPaappeerr aanndd M Meeddiiaa O Ovveerrvviieew w
Before loading paper, consider the following:
• To define attributes for a stock, to add a new stock to the Stock Library, or to assign a stock to a
paper tray for the print job, access the Stock Wizard in the PredictPrint Media Manager
application on the print server. If you have restricted access, contact your System Administrator.
Note: The PredictPrint Media Manager is an application that is loaded onto the print
server and is used to manage the stocks and paper trays for your press.
– By default, the Stock Library feature is available to both the operator and system
administrator modes.
– Your System Administrator may restrict user access to change or add stocks.
– When you are loading paper, the Stock Wizard opens in the PredictPrint Media Manager
application. The Stock Wizard guides you through the steps to set up the stock assigned to
that tray.
Note: If the Administrator has disabled the Stock Wizard, then the Tray Properties
window for the tray appears.
• The press supports the ability to pull different stock sizes and paper types from various trays and
assemble them as part of a single job. To select multiple paper trays and insert different papers
within one job, program this custom job at the print server using features such as special pages.
• The press supports Automatic Tray Switching, which allows a job to switch automatically from an
empty tray to a full tray containing the same size paper, orientation, and stock type. For details on
how to enable this feature and prioritize the order of trays to search on and use, refer to the
System Administrator Guide .
