Change the drying time
You may wish to change the drying time setting to suit special printing conditions such as multiple prints
where time is of higher importance or when you need to be sure ink is dry before handling.
Press , then , then Setup > Print retrieval > Drying time. You can select:
● Extended, to set a longer than recommended time to ensure ink is completely dry
● Optimal, to set the default and recommended time for your selected paper (this is the default setting)
● Reduced, to set a shorter than recommended time when quality is of lower importance
● None, to disable the drying time and remove your print as soon as it finishes printing
CAUTION: If the ink is not dry when the print is removed it could leave ink in the output tray and marks on
the print.
NOTE: If you cancel the drying time during a print, the printer may not feed and cut the paper right away
due to the printhead maintenance, which runs in parallel. If the dry time is zero, the printer cuts the paper
and then performs the printhead maintenance. However, if the dry time is greater than zero, the printer does
not cut the paper until after the printhead maintenance has completed.
Change the retrieval time
You may wish to add some time after drying in which you can pick up the print before the next job starts.
Press , then , then Setup > Print retrieval > Retrieval time.
Turn the automatic cutter on and off
To turn the printer's paper cutter on or off:
● From the HP Designjet Utility for Windows, select the Admin tab and change the Cutter option in Printer
Settings > Advanced.
● From the Embedded Web Server, select the Setup tab, then Printer Settings > Advanced, and change
the Cutter option.
●
From the front panel, press , then , then Setup > Print retrieval > Cutter.
The default setting is On.
If the cutter is turned off, it does not cut the paper between jobs, but continues to cut the paper on loading,
unloading, switching between rolls, and switching between the stacker and the basket.
TIP: To cut roll paper while the automatic cutter is disabled, see Feed and cut the paper on page 64 .
Feed and cut the paper
If you go to the front panel and press , then , then Paper > Form feed and cut, the printer
advances the paper and makes a straight cut across the front edge. There are several possible reasons why
you might want to do this.
