Getting the Best from Nesting (Nesting and Margins)
3000CP Only
In order to “squeeze in” one more page, the printer may reduce the right margin of
the right-most page by up to 3 mm (0.08 in). This is done only if:
■ the
Size
option in the
Page format
menu is set either to a Photo option or to a
discrete standard size, and
■ the roll of media loaded is slightly narrower than a standard size.
NOTE:If you select Smaller Margins with PostScript files, the printer uses the
Normal margin settings. The HP PostScript drivers always use Extended margins
and override the front-panel settings.
Nesting and the Rotate Feature
Since nesting may automatically rotate pages, the
Rotate
setting in the
Page format
menu is ignored while nesting is on. Pages with
Smaller
margin settings are not
rotated.
NOTE:The printer’s automatic rotation does not apply to PostScript files. PostScript
files will print in the orientation in which they were sent to the printer.
