Printer Configuration Printer Configuration enables you to set many options that con-
trol how the printer operates.
Print Settings
◆ Top Gutters — allows you to turn on or off the gutter pat-
tern at the top edge of the print, which shows data about
the print such as date and time printed and print mode, plus
write-in blanks for other data.
◆ Side Gutters — sets the side gutter pattern to narrow,
medium, or wide sizes, or disables them. Side gutter pat-
terns help keep the ink jets open by firing ink through them
in a pattern outside the printed image area.
◆ Takeup Direction — sets the direction of the takeup motor
for Image Inside or Image Outside takeup.
◆ Takeup Control — enables and disables the takeup system.
◆ Platen Vacuum Control — turns on the vacuum fans, then
allows you to raise or lower the speed of the vacuum fans.
Raise the speed if the media is rising off the platen, lower the
speed if the media is buckling or wrinkling.
