This is a feature that is very important in wide format printing from CAD applications and
MS Excel. This is a feature that is required in CAD applications where the image size may
vary from one image to the next such as: 36” x 60” for the first document then 24” x 80”
for the next.
The Custom Size feature allows the users much simpler access for several capabilities:

1. Choose any paper size “on-the-fly” without adding new paper sizes to the operating

system (Printers and Faxes

ÆServer PropertiesÆForms).

2. Choose different and non-standard paper sizes for each and every document.
3. Choose very long paper sizes.
4. It is not necessary to exactly match the document length to the output length; the

users can intentionally choose a longer length for the media size. For example, if
the image is meant to fit on 36” wide media, but the user isn’t sure about the length
of the media required, the user can set a very long length (up to 200 feet) and the
“white” space (extra paper) at the end of the document will automatically be
removed. This prevents any waste in media without an image (KIP GL)

2.7 Resolution


Final output can be changed from 400 DPI to 600 DPI. Please select the DPI to match
your printer DPI.





2.8 Halftone Color Adjustment


The driver can be adjusted to allow colors from within your application to have
different variance of shading. This provides the ability to increase or decrease the level of
overall contrast of the grey tones on final output. Adjust the level as required to satisfy
your final product requirements.


2.9 Management


The system has the ability to account for each print produced. This allows for
job/department costing. Three fields exist in the driver to allow the user to include this
information. This information may be mandatory if so desired at the time of driver
installation. These fields may also include “drop menu” which allows the user to select
from a list of predetermined accounting information. A password or PIN may also be used
to only enable authorized users to submit prints.


The fields can be customized for individual company needs, but generally speaking these
fields are:

a) Name
b) Job Number
c) Description


Name, Job Number and Description fields under “Printing Preferences” or “Document
Defaults (NT4)” can be set to use operating system environment variables.

Examples: The Requester field can be set to %Username%

The Description field can be set to %Computername%

NOTE

The system is a 600 x 600 DPI device.
