These settings can be found by clicking on the Settings button from the Print module main window.

Printer

• Print vertical line: prints a vertical line alongside the jobs.

Advanced parameters

• Use status for job management: the driver will react according to the printer status: wait for the end of the previous print in order to launch a new one, check the job compatibility with the media loaded, etc.
• EpsonHTM threads: used to do parallel calculation when Epson Precision Dot mode is enabled. If you set too many threads, the printing process may slow down.

Media

• Information: at the top of the window, you are able to see information about your media. There you have access to two actions:
  • Save: when you click on this button, the current media settings are saved to the selected media profile (printer, media, resolution, mode) so there will be applied for any new job using the same print configuration. If you don't save, the changes you made are only applied to the current job.
  • Reload: will revert back to default as set during profiling or the last saved changes.
• Horizontal compensation (%): we recommend not to modify this. Any deviation is likely to be mechanical on the printer's side.
• Vertical compensation (%): this can be useful if you detect an increase or decrease in the length due to heating or media tension which is common when printing on vinyl or textiles for example. To calculate the compensation, click Compute and follow the software’s instructions.

• Material: select the reference media that is the closest to the current media. The reference media contains predefined settings you can use to set your media parameters.
• Slot: choose the slot number that contains the adjustments for your media.
• Feed adjustment: this setting can be used in case of banding issues (horizontal striped lines or uneven colors) because of media stretch. You can enter values from -1 to 1.53%.

    Recommendation

  We strongly advise you to set this directly on the printer using the dedicated wizard.

• Drying time (in seconds): to set the time in seconds allowed for the page to dry (max 3600 seconds).

Advanced parameters

• Ink Density Factor (%): maximum level of ink allowed. Increasing this factor might increase the Gamut but it might also create over-inking issues.
• Vardot level (%): set the vardot level percentage

  • Ready
  • Not available
