Adjust the media properties
Introduction
When you create a custom media type and choose the right media category, the media properties
are automatically selected. These media properties are the optimized settings for the selected
media category.
In some cases, you may still want to adjust the media properties. Use the overview to change the
properties accordingly.
IMPORTANT
Changing the default media properties is at your own risk. Note that it can impact the quality of
the print or it can cause a paper jam.

tion]
The default value is [automatic].
Select [maximum] when:
• Media touches occur.
• The edges of the media are wavy.
• The edges of the media curl, caused by stress in the media or a high ink
coverage (e.g. transparent papers).
• The type of media is not flat by nature. Lay a large sheet, 1 m², flat on a
table to check (e.g. Tyvek).
• Media touches caused by wrinkling occur.
Wrinkling because of special media (e.g. vinyl, film etc.) or high humid
conditions (e.g. paper or self-adhesive).
[Compatible with
the embedded
knife]
