HP Latex 360 Printer - Manual (Page 181)

Spindle
A rod that supports a roll of substrate while it is being used for printing.
Substrate
A thin, flat material designed to be printed on, made of paper or other materials.
Substrate preset
The substrate preset contains the ICC color profile, which describes the color characteristics of the substrate. It also
contains information about other characteristics (RIP and printer settings, such as drying and curing temperatures,
vacuum pressure, and substrate-advance compensation) and requirements of the substrate that are not directly related
to color.
Substrate-advance compensation
A slight adjustment to the amount of substrate advance between print passes, to compensate for the characteristics of
different substrate types. The printer normally performs this adjustment automatically, but may need to be recalibrated
for substrates not supported by HP, or for an unusual ambient temperature or humidity. Incorrect substrate-advance
compensation may cause banding with fewer than 8 passes, or graininess with 8 passes or more.
Substrate-advance sensor
The sensor located in the print platen that tracks the substrate movement and increases its accuracy. Also known as
OMAS (Optical Media Advance Sensor).
Tension bar
A cylindrical weight inserted into the loop of substrate required by the take-up reel.
Vacuum pressure
The substrate is held flat against the platen by vacuum suction. Too much or too little suction may cause print quality
defects. Too little suction may also cause a substrate jam or damage the printheads.
