Configuring Printer Features
Printer interfaces and features are set using front panel keys and
menus, PPD options in your application Print dialog box, and
XANTÉ Command Center. This section describes available printer
features and their configuration.
Accurate Calibration Technology (X-ACT)
X-ACT (XANTÉ’s patented Accurate Calibration Technology)
allows you to calibrate your printer in two ways. You can calibrate
printer line lengths using the front panel MISC:XACT menu. You
also can use XANTÉ Command Center’s More X-ACT menu to
calibrate line lengths as well as correct inaccuracies in printing
width, height, skew, and angle.
Because of manufacturing variations and usage, a printer may not
print lines with the exact dimensions specified by the application.
X-ACT allows you to calibrate your printer to compensate for these
differences. See “Procedures” in chapter 3 (Macintosh) or 4 (PC) for
instructions.
Accurate Screens
To maximize processing resources, your printer calculates the line
screen from lpi and angle settings similar, but not necessarily
identical, to the settings specified in your application. The Accurate
Screens feature allows you to override this approximation and use
exact settings specified in your application to calculate the line
screen. When this feature is enabled, there may be an increase in
processing time because of additional demand on printer resources.
Set Accurate Screens feature from your application Print dialog box.
•
False, the factory default, disables Accurate Screens and uses the
printer’s standard line screen calculation.
•
True allows the printer to build the line screen based on the
specific lpi and angle settings in your application.
