Oce 9300 - Selecting the Media Saver; Nesting Prints

74 Océ 9300 User Manual
Selecting the media saver
The Océ 9300 offers two options for optimizing usage of print media: Nesting
and Autoposition. This applies to both vector and raster formats. The media
saver can also be disabled.
The media saver is cleared in the following situations:
■
after a time-out
■
when selecting another roll or manual feed
■
by the flush media saver on the printer operating panel. See also ‘Flush
media saver’ on page 77.
Note:
When automatic roll selection is used, the media saver is inactive.
The following settings must be specified before the media saver can be used:
■
cut methods = synchro
■
center = off
■
leading and trailing edge = 0.
Nesting
When nesting is selected, prints are stored in queues in the printer’s memory,
according to their size: 8.5x11" or A, 11x17" or B, 17x22" or C, and mixed 11
x 17"/8.5 x 11". When the queue is full, the drawings are printed across the full
width of the media.
The minimum paper length is 16.5 inches. Therefore, when printing 11 x 17"
landscape or 8.5 x 11", an extra strip of white paper appears at the end.
If the print is larger than C size, it will not be stored in a queue but will be
printed normally. If prints are not standard ISO, ANSI or Architecture sizes,
the next larger format is used (see figure 23 on page 75).
