Printing Options menu

Print Position and Eject Settings — this menu option controls two related functions that enable
you to control how print jobs are positioned on sheet-fed media, and how to eject the sheets:

Position — when the printed image does not span the entire width of the media, positions
the printed image flush left (nearest the control panel or user side), flush right, centered, or
nested on the media (if Auto Eject Off is selected).

Eject — you can choose whether the media is ejected to the output or input side after each
job prints, or disable automatic eject.

See

Position and eject options on page 25

for further details.

Space Between Prints (roll-fed) — sets the blank space between print jobs, between 0–25 cm
(0–10 in).

Measure Media (sheet-fed) — for cut-sheet media, you can choose various levels of precision
for finding the left (user end), right (service end), and front edges of the media. First, the printer
prompts you to select a measurement frequency (trade-off between precision and speed):

Measure only on first load — measure only once, after you configure the media; best for
fast throughput when precise image placement is not required or when using the media
alignment pins

Measure on all loads — best for precise image placement, such as for N-UP and edge-to-
edge printing

Don’t measure media — best for fast throughput when precise image placement is not
required and there are very wide margins around the image

After you select one of these options, the printer prompts you to select a measurement type:

Minimal — measures the width of the media once and finds the front right edge; no skew
detection

Standard — measures the width of the media once, and finds the front edge in two places
to estimate skew

One Edge — (available with Measure on all loads is selected) measures the user- and
service-end edges on the first sheet, user-end edge only on subsequent sheets, and the
front right edge (no skew detection). For single-sheet jobs only, not available for multi-sheet
N-UP. Works best on jobs with wider margins.

Maximal — measures the width of the media in two places to estimate skew
