HP Scitex FB700 Industrial Printer - Manual (Page 39)

Choose Minimal for fastest throughput, Maximal for greatest precision and skew detection
when printing edge-to-edge.
● Measure media (roll-fed) — for roll-fed media, you can choose various levels of precision for
finding the left (user end), and right (service end) edges of the media.
◦ When loading — locates the left and right edges only when loading a roll of media.
◦ Before each copy — locates the left and right edges of the media before each print. This
enables the printer to compensate for any “drifting” of the media, and print the image at the
correct location.
● Use Ionizer Bar — sets whether to use the ionizer bar to reduce the electrostatic charge on
synthetic medias (the default setting is on or enabled). You may want to disable the ionizer in
humid environments where electrostatic charge is not present on the media, or to reduce the
wear on the ionizer's discharge electrodes. The ionizer bar is powered on only during media
load, printing, and when the lamps are on.
● Use Thickness Sensor — sets whether to use the automatic media thickness sensor, or to
prompt you to manually enter the thickness.
● Head Height off Media — automatically raises the rail to set the printhead clearance from the
media, at the height you specify. A lower height reduces overspray, but increases the chances
for a head strike on the media. Bidi calibration is automatically adjusted for changes in this
value.
● Print White Space — provides the option of causing the printer to advance the media past
unprinted space in the document file without the usual “printing” carriage motion. The printer will
finish curing any printed areas before skipping this space. This option increases the printer's
effective speed (throughput).
● Top Gutters — allows you to turn On or Off the gutter data at the top edge of the print, which
shows the job name, ink, media, date and time printed, print mode, lamps setting, printer,
embedded software version, plus write-in blanks for other data.
● Quality Check — when enabled, prevents printing from occurring if more than a certain number
of missing or misfiring jets are not replaced by working jets. You can specify whether the printer
asks you whether to stop printing with a Warning message, or if printing stops automatically
without a Warning.
● Increase UV Lamp Power — when the printer is no longer fully curing the ink on prints, use this
option to incrementally increase the lamp power. If the power needs to be increased again,
create a custom media and set the UV Lamp Power to Medium or High, or replace the bulbs (the
bulbs should be replaced in pairs). In this case, the printer will warn you that the print may not
fully cure until the bulbs are replaced. (Printing Page > Options > Increase UV Lamp Power)
