Offset
Head offset is only relevant if you have more than one head on your system. If this is
head one, offset must be set to zero.
If this is head two, offset is the distance from the the first nozzle row of the first pen in
the first head to the first nozzle row of the first pen in the second head.
Upside Down
This option will mirror the image horizontally. Select this option if you are printing "up"
instead of down.
Typically you will want to ENABLE this on web printing, if the latch is facing the
operator.
Other side
This option will mirror the image vertically. Select this option if the head is printing
from the other side of the conveyor.

media is transparent, like f.ex a web or clear plastic.
