HP Designjet 10000s Printer series - Manual (Page 291)

NOTE For Celsius/Fahrenheit conversions:
F = (9 × C / 5) + 32
C = 5 × (F - 32) / 9
NOTE This value will only be applied if the HEATER PREF option is set to HEAT PANEL.
Color stripe setting (COLOR STRIPE)
A color stripe is printed on all plots. This ensures that all printhead nozzles are used in all prints, even if
the printed image does not include certain colors. The color stripe avoids drying of nozzles even if they are
not used for a long time because they are not needed within your printed images. This option activates or
deactivates printing of the color stripe for the selected media type.
Parameters:
● OFF — Does not print the color stripe.
● ON — Prints the color stripe.
NOTE Use of the color stripe will add 40 mm (1.57 in) to your print margin.
NOTE We recommend that you set COLOR STRIPE to ON if possible. If the color stripe is not
printed, this can affect printhead nozzle performance.
The color stripe is printed on the test print even if this option is set to OFF.
Printhead firing mode setting (IMAGE GRADIENT)
Use this option for the selected media type if you see banding or misdirected printhead nozzles and you
want to achieve a more graduated placement of ink. This option modifies the printhead firing mode.
Parameters:
● NORMAL — Default
● HIGHLIGHT — Modifies the printhead firing mode
Tip The HIGHLIGHT mode action of the printheads can be useful to avoid nozzles out in a
specific color when printing a large number of images that do not use that specific color.
NOTE HIGHLIGHT reduces the printing speed. We advise you to clean the printheads and reset
the option to NORMAL.
