Print on loaded paper
To print a job on whichever paper is loaded in the printer, select Any in the Paper Type option of your
printer driver.
●
In the Windows driver dialog: select the Paper/Quality tab, then select Any in the Paper Type
drop-down list.
●
In the Mac OS Print dialog (T1120): select the Paper Type/Quality panel, then select Any in the
Paper Type drop-down list.
●
In the Mac OS PS Print dialog (T1120ps): select the Image Quality panel, then select Any in the

Maintain paper
To maintain paper quality, follow the recommendations below.
●
Store rolls covered by another piece of paper or cloth
●
Store cut sheets covered and clean or brush them before loading them in the printer
●
Clean input and output platens and cut sheet tray
●
Always keep the window of your printer closed
NOTE: Photo and coated paper requires careful handling, see The print is scuffed or scratched
on page 158.
Change the drying time
You may wish to change the drying time setting to suit special printing conditions such as multiple prints
where time is of higher importance or when you need to be sure ink is dry before handling.
Select the Setup menu icon
, then Print retrieval > Select drying time. You can select:
●
Extended, to set a longer than recommended time to ensure ink is completely dry
●
Optimal, to set the default and recommended time for your selected paper
●
Reduced, to set a shorter than recommended time when quality is of lower importance
●
None, to disable the drying time and remove your print as soon as it finishes printing
CAUTION: If the ink is not dry when the print is removed it could leave ink in the output tray and marks
on the print.
NOTE: If you cancel the drying time during a print, the printer may not feed and cut the paper right
away due to the printhead maintenance, which runs in parallel. If the dry time is zero, the printer cuts
the paper and then performs the printhead maintenance. However, if the dry time is greater than zero,
the printer does not cut the paper until after the printhead maintenance has completed, even if you press
the Form feed and cut key
