HP Designjet 4500 Printer series - Manual (Page 164)

You can rescale an image in the following ways:
● Using a Windows printer driver: select the Effects tab, then Resizing options.
● The Print document on option adjusts the image size to the page size selected for your
printer. For example, if you have selected ISO A2 as the page size and you print an A4-
size image, it will be enlarged to fit the A2 page. If the ISO A3 page size is selected, the
printer would reduce a larger image to fit the A3 size.
● The % of normal size option enlarges the printable area of the original page by the
percentage indicated and adds the printer margins to make up the output page size.
● Using a Mac OS printer driver: select the Finishing panel, then Print document on.
The driver adjusts the image size to the page size selected for your printer.
● Using the Embedded Web Server: select the Submit Job page, then Resizing.
●
Using the front panel: select the icon, then Default printing options > Paper options > Scale.
If you are printing to a single sheet, you must ensure that the image can actually fit onto the page,
otherwise clipping will occur.
Change the palette settings
You cannot change the Factory palette, but you can define Palettes A and B to be whatever you
choose.
These palettes will be applied only to HP-GL/2 jobs with no software palette embedded.
NOTE All HP-GL/2 jobs generated by the HP-GL/2 driver that comes with the printer will
include an embedded software palette, and thus any palette settings in the front panel will be
ignored.
To redefine Palette A:
1.
Go to the front panel, select the icon, then Default printing options > HP-GL/2 options >
Define palette > Palette A.
2. Scroll to the pen number you want to change and press Select.
3. You can see the current width assigned to this pen by selecting Width; for example Width=0.35
mm. If you want to change it:
4. Press Select.
5. Scroll to the width you want.
6. Press Select again.
7. Press Back to get to the previous menu: Color/Width. Otherwise, scroll to Color.
8. When you select Color, the current color assigned to the pen is displayed, for example
Color=110. If you want to change it:
9. Press Select.
