about the print such as date and time printed and print
mode, plus write-in blanks for other data.
◆ Side Gutters — sets the side gutter pattern to Narrow,
Medium, or Wide sizes, or turns them Off. Side gutter
patterns help keep the ink jets open by firing ink
through them in a pattern outside the printed image
area. You can print gutters on the left side only of the
media (closest to the capping station), or both sides.
Printing on the left side only reduces ink usage, while
printing on both sides can keep the inkjets clearer. Using
this feature decreases the width available for printing the
job.
◆ Left Platen Gutter — determines when the jets will fire in
the left spittoon to keep all jets firing correctly. Turning
off this function may speed throughput with narrower
media, since it allows the carriage to turn around before
reaching the end of the platen, but it may also necessi-
tate more frequent Purge-n-Wipe operations to clear
clogged jets. Always On fires the jets in the spittoon
with all media widths. For Narrow Media Only fires the
jets in the spittoon only if the media is less than 40
inches wide. For Wide Media Only fires the jets only if
the media is less than 72 inches wide. Off for All Media
disables spittoon firing for all media widths.
◆ Platen Gutter Spits — sets the amount of ink used by the
maintenance spits to High, Medium, and Low. To con-
serve ink, use the lowest setting that keeps the jets open.
The default High.
◆ Margin Settings
◆ Space Between Prints (roll-fed) — sets the blank space
between print jobs, between 0 and 10 inches (25 cm).
◆ Right and Left Margin — sets the amount of blank space
for the right and left margins, between 0 and 5 inches
(13 cm).
◆ Leading Margin (cut-sheet) — sets the amount of blank
space at the leading edge of cut-sheet media.
