paper on prints containing obvious mistakes. See Preview a print on page 75.
Nest jobs to save roll paper
Nesting means automatically printing images or document pages side by side on the paper, rather than one
after the other. This is done to avoid wasting paper.
1. Direction of paper flow
2. Nesting off
3. Nesting on
4. Paper saved by nesting
When does the printer try to nest pages?
When both of the following are true:
●
The printer is loaded with roll paper, not sheet paper.
●
The printer's Nest option is turned on. See Turn nesting on and off on page 27.
What pages can be nested?
All pages can be nested, unless they are so large that two of them cannot fit side by side on the roll, or unless
there are too many of them to fit into the remaining length of the roll. A single group of nested pages cannot
be split between two rolls.
Which pages qualify for nesting?
In order to be in the same nest, the individual pages must be compatible in all of the following ways:
●
All pages must have the same print quality setting (Economode, Fast, Normal or Best).
●
The Maximum Detail setting must be the same on all pages.
●
The Layout/Margins setting must be the same for all pages.
●
The Mirror Image setting must be the same for all pages.
●
The Rendering Intent must be the same for all pages.
●
The Cutter setting must be the same for all pages.
