HP Designjet T1100 Printer Series - User's Guide

NOTE: Photo and coated paper requires careful handling, see The print is scuffed or
scratched on page 167.
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.
Select the Setup menu icon
, then Print retrieval> Select 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
●
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, even if you press the Form feed and cut key
.
