Introduction
The purpose of this guide is to provide operators of the HP Scitex FB550 and FB750 printers
with recommendations for printing on various types of rigid media. These recommendations
provide the best operating instructions under most circumstances, but, due to the variability
of print media, there will be situations or scenarios that may require modification of these
procedures.
HP Scitex FB550 and FB750 printers work better with some media than with others. Factors
such as media flatness, texture, or smoothness, reaction to heat, surface tension, and
chemical composition can affect the image quality, the ability of the ink to adhere
adequately, and the overall usability for a particular application. Always test new media to
determine whether it meets your requirements before purchasing a large quantity.
There are many different types of print media available throughout the world, although
brands, selection and quality will vary by region. The information in this document covers a
broad range of typical media types that have been tested with the HP Scitex FB550 and
FB750 printers, but at the same time this is not a complete list of all compatible media.
Print mode considerations
When selecting a print mode for a specific application, it is important to consider: the level of
throughput (speed) desired to complete the job, the viewing distance and quality expectation
for the application, and the printing characteristics of the media selected for the job. If a certain
print mode selected does not generate the desired result, it may be necessary to select a
different print mode.
