Here are some settings that might be used in typical situations:
●
With different paper types loaded:
◦
Type is: select the paper type you require
◦
Source is: Automatically select / Predetermined
◦
Roll switching policy: doesn't matter
●
With different paper widths loaded:
◦
Type is: Any
◦
Source is: Automatically select / Predetermined
◦
Roll switching policy: Minimize paper waste
TIP: You can also save paper in some cases by rotating or nesting your images. See Use paper
economically on page 86.
●
With identical rolls loaded:
◦
Type is: Any
◦
Source is: Automatically select / Predetermined
◦
Roll switching policy: Minimize roll changes
Job allocation with nesting
If nesting is on (see Nest jobs to save paper on page 86), the printer assumes that your main aim is to save
paper. Therefore, the roll switching options are ignored and the printer behaves as though Minimize paper
waste has been chosen. See
Roll switching options on page 24.
If the paper mismatch action is set to Print anyway, jobs can be nested together on any roll, even if the roll
does not match the paper source or paper type specified in the job settings. To respect these job settings, set
the paper mismatch action to Put job on hold. See
Paper mismatch action on page 23.
TIP: If you have a roll intended for special purposes only, or with particularly expensive paper, you can use
roll protection to prevent jobs from using that roll by accident. See
Roll protection on page 88.
